The Tolerance of Chicago Corruption

Beachwood Reporter reports on how the Chicago newspapers tolerate Mayor Daley.You'll want to read this one:
"Richard Brzeczek, who was police superintendent, informed Richard M. Daley, who was Cook County state's attorney, in writing that there was credible evidence Burge and his men had tortured a suspect," the Sun-Times editorial notes.

"But Daley looked away."

The paper hasn't had any problem endorsing him for mayor every four years, though.

High standards in Chicago.
