On Political Contributions, Partisan Blogging, and my Firing from the Cleveland Plain Dealer
Huffington Post
By Jeff Coryell
Though The Cleveland Plain Dealer stars in the tale of Coryell's firing, "the Forest City real estate empire" makes a cameo appearance, doing what it does best:
I had written extensively on my own blog, Ohio2006, about LaTourette's 2006 re-election contest. I explicitly supported his challenger, law professor Lew Katz (D-Pepper Pike). I also wrote about him being named in the Jack Abramoff corruption investigation, and what I regard as the suspicious connection between large amounts of campaign cash LaTourette received from the Ratner family of Cleveland, of the Forest City real estate empire, and their receiving an enormous contract to develop 44 acres of the Southeast Federal Center in Washington DC.
