Mr. Katz, a self-made millionaire and prominent figure in Philadelphia political circles, and his business partner, the cable magnate H.F. Lenfest, had recently won a heated auction for The Inquirer and its affiliated properties. On Tuesday, the two agreed to pay $88 million for the paper, the website Philly.com and The Philadelphia Daily News.

Does this mean the Inquirer is still for sale?

I figured it was going to be some sort of executive big shot on that plane when they reported the crash last night. Shitty way to go though, the plane was taking off so you kinda have to figure they likely lived through the crash and died in the fire.

Are we looking at a conspiracy?
