Irving Kristol once said something to the effect of there are no ethical problems in America that a Great Depression wouldn't cure

Hollinger critic plays ethics cop, but ignores some offenders

Robert Feder, a TV/radio critic for Hollinger's Chicago Sun-Times, spanks Chicago television and radio execs for all but ignoring some of the most clear-cut ethical lapses ever witnessed in this market. Of course, Feder fails to mention the Sun-Times' parent company's terrible ethics record. ALSO: Feder notes that two TV journalists were photographed for a boutique's magazine ad. What he doesn't mention: Sun-Times political writer Steve Neal appears in full-page restaurant ads.
