Amieliorating The Positives

Oh, how the mighty have fallen.

What with the Hollinger and Radler trials/plea bargaining deals looming, it looks like Conrad Black's early out deal on the National Post with the departed Izzy and his not so magnificent AsperSons might have been The Marauder's last good one.

But these days even slightly silver clouds above Mr. Black's head are lined with lead. Case in point, recent reports are speculating that Gerry Schwartz is involved with a group making a play for the finest money losing fishwrap producer that money can buy.

Which has us wondering - why would Mr. Schwartz want to do something ridiculous like that?

Because even for a turn around artist this one has the smell of never ending switchbacks to red ink ville.

Unless, perhaps.....

....Mr. Schawartz is eyeing Ms. Amiel's old mega-column spot for his own Ms. Reisman.

So, how does all 'Heather's Picks' on all matters all the time sound?

The mind reels.

Positively.
