The Chicago Tribune may file Chapter 11 Bankruptcy and the New York Times may just follow suit.

Today the Times announced that it is going to attempt to mortgage a building it only owns 58% of. Sure would hate to be their business partner. The NYT needs money because on of their 2 $400M line of credits is set to expire in May.

Standard & Poor's recently lowered its credit rating on the Times Company below investment grade, and Moody's Investors Service has said it was considering a similar move. Times Company stock, which has lost more than half its value this year, closed on Friday at $7.64, down 30 cents.

The liberal newspapers acted immorally by making up the news, rather than reporting it. With pro-liberal news stories and immoral news reports on societies shortcomings, I for one am glad to see these news rags get rung out like an old dirty mop.

Let the next generation of Free Press take over, yes, news from the people via blogs, local websites and discussion forums is the next generation in news reporting.

I have to say that I agree about the NYT. They tried to throw the election by overwhelmingly cover republican candidates and ideas in a negative light while at the same time, covered democratic candidates as good and having better ideas. That is not the newspapers job. Their job is to report the news as unbiasedly as possible. By being biased, they lose readers they regularly offend.

You think liberal newspapers make stuff up? They have nothing on the liberal blogs that comprise a solid majority of the internet.
