Rich Connor is a first class scumbag. This story does not surprise me. Those at the Star-Telegram when he was publisher is well aware of his "track record."

Yeah, other businesses would just say that $500,000 is his bonus.

The question should be "why isn't this guy in jail for embezzlement?"

The question should be "how in the world did Andy Dufresne get the best of him?"
