Hi Farce in Chicago
After watching Scooter Libby go down on suppressed evidence and a he said/she said prosecution, my faith in trial by jury in America is pretty low. Which means I suspect that Conrad Black is likely to be convicted regardless of whether he did anything actually illegal. But the trial has revealed one, hitherto untapped, Canadian resource, Mark Steyn, court reporter:
So the auditors testified that the audit committee did it, and the audit committee testified that Radler and co did it, and Radler has now testified that Toronto did it. Maybe Toronto can be called to testify that Medicine Hat did it. macleans
While this is not at all funny for Black, Steyn’s writing makes much of the trial hilarious for the rest of us.
