Righteous and throwing back to their ‘90s sound, this is the best U2 has been in a long time. Wasn’t sure they still had this in ‘em. youtu.be/Y3ziTSYyook?...

the Washington Post layoffs are remarkable but in particular stunned by them getting rid of all their photojournalists. the visual journalists in the Sun-Times/WBEZ newsroom elevate our storytelling and journalism each and every day. I cannot fathom a newsroom vision without them.

It's been a few years since the paywall was taken off the website. Users may see a pop-up with a request to donate, watch a 30-second video on our mission or provide their email address, but they shouldn't have to pay to read any article unless they'd like to donate

Two families, two responses to spiking Obamacare costs: ‘We can live only maximum 10 more years’ As Affordable Care Act premiums are expected to rise, a single mom expects to become uninsured. Meanwhile, a couple plans to keep their insurance but say they can only afford 10 more years of coverage...

Woke up this morning especially disgusted with the Democrats' capitulation on the Obamacare tax credits issue. An egregious abdication of their responsibility to their constituents in order to try to deal with GOPers who will never, ever work with them. trib.al/oFVFKEf

He worked hard to give me a home. ICE took his: How I lost my father to deportation Deportation has taken away the father I once knew and has given me back a person I no longer recognize.

"Deportation has taken away the father I once knew and given me back a person I no longer recognize."

Personal, powerful writing from my colleague Vanessa Lopez on how her father and family have been affected by his deportation.

Telling of how out of touch Colbert is at this point that he thinks everyone considers him an important progressive voice. Being centrist lib is like your whole thing, man!

Astonishing levels of selfishness here when trust in the party and the system are already low.

This is like how people who watch Succession think everyone watches Succession but actually the vast majority of people just watch NCIS on CBS

Naked Gun at the drive-in was a throwback and such a blast, my favorite scene is near the end when Frank and the villain have a showdown that results in a bit so silly and hilarious I couldn’t think straight for 30 seconds

It’s kinda amazing to see when the DNC decides to care about its procedural rules versus when it doesn’t

The Sun-Times is losing some amazing journalists. They wouldn't want us to stop. The bad news: 35 staffers — including 23 in the newsroom — took a Chicago Public Media buyout and most are leaving today. But their sacrifice will help ensure the newspaper's future.

On a sad Friday morning, here is a lovely farewell to the many Sun-Times staffers leaving today.

There is no getting around it — the talent vacuum created by these losses will require a lot of us to step up like never before. We hope to deliver for you all.

Chicago Sun-Times to lose 20% of staff after buyout offer Columnists, editorial writers and many more head for the exits as the paper's nonprofit owner, Chicago Public Media, deals with fiscal hardship.

Thirty employees of the Chicago Sun-Times — around one in five on its payroll — have agreed to resign after a buyout offer.

The departures primarily affect writers and editors, many of whom have extensive experience at the newspaper.

Some deeply sad days at the Sun-Times seeing so many of my talented colleagues taking buyouts to leave the organization. These are devastating losses of talent and institutional know-how, and Chicago will be worse off without them doing their work.

I love that these moves set up the Bears to have no excuse in Caleb's development.

They got the best offensive-minded coach available. They aggressively turned over the entire IOL after a disastrous season. The weapons in place are still reasonably appealing.

Now it's up to Caleb to be great.
