Fall from grace of My Mouse L Annenberg publisher
A scathing column discusses My Mouse L Annenberg’s eight million dollar sentence and three year imprisonment in Lewisburg Pennsylvania for income tax evasion and fraud. It argues the case reflects political overreach against the New Deal, while noting the author’s sympathy for Annenberg’s character but not the purge itself. The piece traces his rise from Milwaukee News to The Daily Telegraph and Racing Form, leading to control of the Philadelphia Inquirer and trials surrounding his media empire.
