(Jewish Group) Chicago Tribune demotes columnist who blamed George Soros for violent protests
The Chicago Tribune has demoted a longtime columnist who blamed George Soros for violence in Chicago and other major U.S. cities.
John Kass, who has been on Page 2 of the newspaper for 23 years, wrote in his July 22 column that it is the big cities run by Democratic mayors, where murder and gang shootings are out of control and where once vibrant downtown areas are on their way to becoming ghost towns. But these Democratic cities are also where left-wing billionaire George Soros has spent millions of dollars to help elect liberal social justice warriors as prosecutors. He remakes the justice system in urban America, flying under the radar.
The Soros-funded prosecutors, not the mayors, are the ones who help release the violent on little or no bond.
On Monday, Tribune editor-in-chief Colum McMahon announced that he would reorganize the placement of the newspapers columnists and separate news coverage from opinion columns. Kass will also lose his title of lead columnist. The news was first broken by independent media blogger Robert Feder.
