refried: your points in #164 are well-taken. In fact, I just went back and re-read the first three posts. They synopsize and legitimize your assessment quite well. The level of intimidation (a.k.a. bullying) is chilling in this thread. Yet another microcosm of the soapboxization of America in my opinion, i.e., most anyone with a keyboard and internet access can make the claim of infallibility on any given issue, falsely or not. GBS - Glenn Beck Syndrome. I hear you on the peaceful comment - often I'm embarrassed by what I've just typed, sentiments so out of character for me yet begging to be released, for posterity's sake if nothing else.

Judging by the content of the posts, it's possible that "Barfin" might be the actual name. Or perhaps that's code for "Ralphin" or (Up)"Chuckin". A genyoowine "ding"-a-ling, at any rate.— April 15, 2010 3:23 p.m.

Correction: The quote in the above post (#11) was near the end of the 2nd installment. The first installment contained this quote: "Indeed, Helen’s death sparked some industry observers to speculate whether David intends to sell off all or part of the empire." Whether predictable or foreordained, the outcome was likely set years before.— April 12, 2010 3:52 p.m.

Re # 10: As bulldogs go, Don, you're a consistent one. Chomp. Still a compelling read, nearly 4 1/2 years later. I concur that the article might have been more effective had a few less softballs been lobbed. I do appreciate Liddick's reportage near the close of the first installment: "Other things haven’t changed at all. Speculation regarding the future of the Union-Tribune, and a possible sale, has been rampant ever since Jim Copley’s death in 1973."— April 12, 2010 3:08 p.m.

Don, that's Part II that I linked in # 6 - still online, also.— April 12, 2010 12:26 p.m.
