    I'd be curious what kind of "non-compete" clause Jay has in his contract.

    The second he's convinced he won't be sued, he'll be at The Tribune.

    "The frenzy about me is off-center, disproportionate to reality."

    which reality would that be, jay?

    Very disappointing the Tribune tried to hire the flip flopper who attacks his own. Not a surprise, but disappointing.

    Looks like I'll start reading the Sun Times online in about a year.

    Not me. Too pokey about posting Beijing stories.

    There is nothing Mariotti can do to stoop as low as the Sun-Times did.

    What they did after he left was nothing short of disgraceful.

    . . . and I'm not a blind defender of Steinberg. I've read his latest book ("Drunkard"), and while you feel badly for the guy, the monstrous ego and prickly social persona makes him a match w/Jay, in that area. Tough to take sides.
