Thoughts on the Conrad Black trial, anyone?

He sold his newspapers a while ago, but I wonder how much of a player he still is. Interesting that Pearle may be called as a defense witness.
As a Canadian, I would love to see this SOB go down, he pretty much had a lid on the Canadian media up here.

Don't worry I am going to cover the Hollinger trial. The guy didn't just sell papers he was the CEO of Hollinger and that is where Perle is the director! Guess who brought him down? Fizgerald baby. Yes the same lawyer who took down Libby.

Yeah, and I remember when his wifey Barbara Amiel was writing editorials... holy shit.
These people are assholes. Some of the first impressions the current MSM headlines were creating were Amiels' venom, relating to some reporters covering the trial as "Sluts" and "Vermin".
That's right, bitch. It stings when you're going down in flames, doesn't it?
Geez. Talk about a cornered animal. A friend of mine caught a raccoon one time. Man oh man...
So Ry, it'll be interesting to see if the two trials have any overlapping.
I live in a small town with its own local paper, and one can still get their voice in there. I want to report on this thing, people here know more about Conrad Black than Libby. When I mention Libby, I get blank stares.

Well Conrad Black was already fired. I am working today on a video but I am going to write about it. I said a little bit about it in this vid.

Nice...I'm also curious about this one.
