Conrad Black named Business Newsmaker of the Year ...

Dec. 31, 2005

Canadians are staying tuned to Conrad Black's legal battles, prompting The Canadian Press and Broadcast News to bestow on him the title of Business Newsmaker of the Year for the third year in a row.

The 61-year-old former newspaper mogul, who thwarted Jean Chrétien's effort to stop him from being named Lord Black of Crossharbour, is now preparing for the fight of his life in a Chicgao courtroom.

The battleground will be a U.S. federal courthouse, where Black has pleaded not guilty to federal charges of fraud, obstruction of justice and racketeering.

Black's troubles made him the hands-down winner in the annual survey of newspaper editors and broadcasters by CP and Broadcast News.

GOOD LUCK to Fitzie in his racketeering/fraud/moneylaundering prosecution of this bastard....

I cannot wait until that slime bag is behind bars and his nasty wife is taken down a peg or three at the same time. They are both despicable.

This is fun.
