Not your average story...

Wow, as a correspondent, it can't be much tougher than this. In today's Tribune David Greising covered a dispute between the paper's parent company and Google News. The complications are immense: two huge companies, one comprising the bigwigs at the paper, arguing over the consequences of a story your section covered. Greising tried to be as objective as possible, and there's no editorializing here, but gee--not an assignment I'd be looking for. As media companies consolidate, will we see more heavyweight clashes like this in the future? For future Business writers, let's hope not!
