PHILADELPHIA — As feuding owners fight in court for control of The Philadelphia Inquirer, the board chairman says co-owner George Norcross single-handedly runs the show. Norcross, who’s an insurance executive and Democratic power broker in South Jersey, and five others pooled $55 million to buy the troubled company last year. But H.F. “Gerry” Lenfest, the board chairman, says “everything is really done (under) the direction of Norcross.” Former New Jersey Nets owner Lewis Katz says he and Norcross bought equal shares for $16 million apiece, so both would have to agree on major decisions. Yet Katz says Editor Bill Marimow was fired without his consent. A judge must decide whether to return Marimow to the newsroom. The hearing continues today. Now that politicians can be controlling local news. You will only be fed what they want you to hear. I suppose we will only receive the news as Norcross sees it. America is rapidly dissolving as we know it because of the control politicians are exercising over us.
