Yusef Jackson in Bud ( er bid) to Buy Sun Times

Looks like the Peotone Airport Ploy will get some solid media coverage if the Bud Brothers's, Yusef, gets the winning bid for the Sun Times. Reports in the media, like Phil Rosenthal's column in the Chicago Tribune ( June 30, 2006), estimate that Yusef Jackson with the backing of grocery store magnate Ron Burckle of California might pop down $ 850 million buds ( er, Bucks) for The Bright One.http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/columnists/chi-0606300177jun30,1,3499896.column?coll=chi-business-hed

    River North is an Anhueser-Busch monoooly. Yusef would find the going tougher owning the number 2 outlet in a low-growth to no-growth business.
