CHICAGO - Mayor Richard Daley apparently doesn't subscribe to the notion that it is unwise to argue with someone who buys ink by the barrel.
In the last few weeks, the mayor has been battling the city's largest newspaper — the Chicago Tribune — accusing it of favoritism, double standards and revenge. Although Daley has never been shy about blasting the media when he reads a news story he doesn't like, this fight has escalated well beyond red-faced tirades.
Daley has threatened to shut down one of the Tribune Co.'s most valuable assets: Wrigley Field, the storied home of the Chicago Cubs.
Which begs the question: Hey asshole, what part of "freedom of speech, or of the press" did you not understand?
