Rezco Trial Coverage

Posted by: Media Lizzy | 03/07/2008 10:53 PM

For those of you interested in full coverage of the Antoin "Tony" Rezco trial, I recommend checking the Gavel-to-Gavel coverage by the Chicago Tribune. There is plenty of in-depth history, analysis and facts galore. The Democratic Governor, Rod Blagojevich, has been publicly identified as "Public Official A" and the hits don't stop there.

Among my favorite articles...Rezko sells lot next to Obama - Obama still answers for old ties to Rezko - Rezko put in jail; bail is revoked - Funds tough to figure for Rezko aid - Barack Obama has successfully redefined the 2008 presidential campaign - and made it entirely about "judgment." Via the Rezco trial - the question becomes, "What judgment did Barack Obama exercise in maintaining a close relationship with Rezco?"
