James O’Shea Discusses ‘The Deal From Hell’
I just published a new book, “The Deal From Hell,” that provides an inside look at how Chicago real estate investor Sam Zell came to acquire newspapers such as the Chicago Tribune and Los Angeles Times. It’s a book full of larger than life egos, huge fees to greedy investment bankers, tragic business miscalculations and the decline of institutions that are vital to a democracy. But it is also the story of how and why we started the Chicago News Cooperative and about the crucial need for quality journalism in Chicago and elsewhere.
Below are clips from an interview about the book with CNC columnist James Warren. For the complete interview, an excerpt from “The Deal From Hell” and more information about it, please visit thedealfromhell.com.
