Tribune Skunked in Pulitzers... Again

Despite spending Pulitzer season ostentatiously slapping its own back for a series about teen traffic accidents — a story one might think a newspaper should have been covering all along — the Chicago Tribune won no Pulitzers again.

We're not bringing this up just to dance on the grave of the Cubune, nor to merely repeat what we wrote last year, but rather to demonstrate the lie when Tribune tells you how wonderful it is, and how respected. People only believe that inside the Tower, where the water coolers serve the kool-aid. Out in the real world, journalists want the Tribune out of journalism.
