The Courtstalker, Part V

Another report from our man in the Everett McKinley Dirksen Building, 219 South Dearborn Street, Chicago:

I had a pleasant chat outside the courtroom yesterday with Barbara Amiel. We discussed her preferences in broadcast media. She claims to enjoy watching Newsworld (one of precious few, I can assure you, outside the nation’s catatonia wards) and has it playing in her bathroom on Park Lane Circle. Not a CBC Radio fan, she gets her radio news from the BBC, which she nonetheless reviles for its shameless and persistent left-wing bias. On other fronts, reports around the courthouse have it that within the last week or so Black, seeking divine intervention, dined with the Catholic Archbishop of Chicago. Black’s petitions in this regard are likely still pending.
