Chicago Tribune | Section 1 | Thursday, February 14, 2019 13 Venezuela’s crisis of socialist faith Not just leaders, but very economic model questioned By Anthony Faiola The Washington Post

CARACAS, Venezuela — Since the eruption of pro- tests against President Nic- olas Maduro last month, Flor Blanco, a 57-year-old seamstress, has repeatedly clashed with her husband over a question at the core of the crisis here: Did so- cialism kill Venezuela? Blessed with the world’s largest oil reserves, this South American nation was once the region’s richest per capita. Twenty years after the launch of the late Hugo Chavez’s Bolivarian Revolution, it is now one of the poorest.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING SCOTT STANTIS

Democrats need an identity-politics interven- tion. Having unleashed race, gender, sexual orien- tation and class as the defining issues of American politics, these furies are now consuming their authors. Where’s Barack Obama when Democrats need him? … Imagine the cognitive Democratic dissonance if Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax, who is black, is forced to resign because of unproved accusations of sexual assault that he denies, while the two white men survive despite racial offenses that they admit. If Democrats think these furies will be con- fined to Virginia, look at Elizabeth Warren as she launches her presidential campaign. It turns out she wrote “American Indian” on her 1986 regis- tration card for the Texas legal bar — confirmation that she had claimed Native American ancestry. … Republicans can hardly believe their luck as they watch Democrats destroy themselves with the same weaponized outrage that has long been used against them. … When this poison was directed at Republicans, we lamented how this wasn’t good for America. Now that the attacks are on Demo- crats, we say the same: This is no good for the country or the Democratic Party. … The ideology of race, gender and class is now so deeply ingrained on the political left that no one dares to challenge it. That leaves Mr. Obama, the only Democrat with the personal and political standing to explain the perils of using race and gender as all-purpose, indiscriminate political weapons. … Democrats may be too far gone to listen, in which case the only discipline would be political defeat. The Wall Street Journal 18 Chicago Tribune | Section 1 | Thursday, February 14, 2019 PERSPECTIVE Sleazy journalism can serve the public good By Stephen Mihm

There are plenty of reasons to sympa- thize with Jeff Bezos in his battle with the National Enquirer. If true, the accusations of blackmail brought by the billionaire founder of Amazon would be just the latest outrage from the tabloid, which has made a specialty of scabrous reporting, and ethi- cally questionable tactics and techniques. But that doesn’t mean we should always applaud the campaigns of powerful moguls to silence sleazy newspapers. History shows that even the most odious publica- tions and the worst practices of scandal sheets can inadvertently play an important role in maintaining the freedom of the press. There’s no better illustration than the sordid story of the Saturday Press. In the early 20th century, hundreds if not thousands of small, local newspapers began imitating the yellow journalism style pioneered by William Randolph Hearst. These papers, most of them small-time weeklies, wallowed in the gutter. They viciously attacked minorities; they also published lurid stories of sex and crime as well as what one historian has described as “grossly exaggerated accounts of malfea- sance by public officials.” The editors displayed a brazen disregard for journalistic ethics, creating entirely bogus stories or hyping more modest scan- dals with salacious details. Then, copy in hand, they would approach the person they implicated in funny business, threat- ening to go public unless the victim made it worth their while to stay silent. Most vic- tims acceded to editorial demands: Extor- tion was difficult to prove in court. Among the editors accused of this prac- tice was a miscreant from Minnesota named Howard Guilford, who had a hand in several scandal sheets. It’s little surprise that the wealthy and powerful hated Guil- ford, and they may have been behind trumped-up accusations of counterfeiting and other crimes leveled against him. More CHICAGO HERALD AND EXAMINER credible, though, were multiple charges of Tribune Editor Col. Robert R.

Join the club.,” Feb. 10). But she didn’t mention that ranked choice voting is a simple cure for it. Instead of voting for just one candidate, ranked choice voting lets you rank candidates. If your first choice doesn’t win, your vote goes to your second choice, until a candi- date has a majority. There are no spoilers, no strategic voting, no anxiety. — Robert Middlekauff, Chicago Change would improve voting With 14 candidates in the running for Chicago mayor, perhaps it would be best for the city Board of Election Commissioners to postpone the Feb. 26 mayoral election until ranked choice voting can be put into place.

Walmart wants what Amazon has Retailers looking for alternate revenue streams By Matthew Boyle Bloomberg News

CUBS Dempster eager to pitch talk show on new network By Paul Sullivan | Chicago Tribune

MESA, Ariz. — Now that the Cubs have announced the launch of their new televi- sion network in 2020, the search for programming to fill out the 24-hour schedule begins. One of the early favorites to get a spot is the “The Ryan Dempster Show,” a talk show featuring the former Cubs pitcher and current MLB Network analyst as host. Dempster has been doing his routine for a few years at the Cubs Convention, and he’s ready to go prime time, late night or even early morning if called upon. Dempster and Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant created a splash last month when Bryant called St. Louis a “boring” city and Dempster said it was one town he never wanted to play in. The interview quickly went viral and drew some harsh criticism from Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina, who wrote on his Instagram page: “Only stupid players and losers make comments like the ones made by Bryant and Dempster.” So what does Dempster have in mind for a potential gig on the Cubs’ Marquee Sports Network? “I don’t want think it’s something that could be a nightly show,” Dempster said Wednesday at Cubs camp. “I think that’s pretty lofty expectations. I’m still trying to kind of learn my craft. But I think it’s something that could be done once a week, or once a month to start. “It’s a lot of fun. I judge it because I know the (Cubs players) that come on all have fun. When I got done with the show, texting with (Rick Sutcliffe and Ryne Sandberg), and they love doing that. It’s a great way to see the personal side of the players, hear interesting stories. BRIAN CASSELLA/CHICAGO TRIBUNE “Hearing (Ben Zobrist) walk through his Fans wanting to watch Jason Heyward, Kyle Schwarber and the Cubs on TV after 2019 must have the Marquee Sports Network. at-bat in Game 7 of the World Series in ’16, those are pretty special moments, to be able to share those with fans and give that Phil Rosenthal in-depth look.” Dempster also hopes to bring in celebri- ties — such as Eddie Vedder and Bill Murray — to talk baseball. In ’20, Cubs on TV not free “They love the game of baseball and they love the Cubs, and they can share those stories and see that side (of them) too,” he said. “That’s a little bit more fun for them.

BULLS

BULLS NOTES Agent says Bulls had planned to keep Portis By K.C. Johnson Chicago Tribune

In an interview with the web- site HoopsHype, Bobby Portis reiterated what he said Saturday in Chicago: He doesn’t “have anything negative to say about anyone in the Chicago Bulls or- ganization. They’re a first-class organization and they do every- thing the right way.” But Portis related his view of the trade, which some saw as criticism when he said he didn’t “think it was done the right way.” Portis disputed that take on social media, and his visit to the Bulls locker room after Saturday’s game as a member of the Wizards reflects someone who still cares for the organization. Mark Bartelstein, Portis’ Chi- cago-based agent, told the Trib- une on Wednesday his client and the Bulls are on the same page. “(General manager) Gar (For- man) made it very clear to me they had no interest in trading Bobby and wanted him there long term,” Bartelstein said. “However, like with anyone else, they had to listen to offers coming in. A day before the deadline, he didn’t think anything was going to hap- pen. There’s no doubt in my mind that Gar and (executive vice presi- dent John Paxson) were sincere about their desire to re-sign him. “I told Bobby, ‘They love you. They want to get a deal done this summer and have no interest in trading you. But if the right offer comes about, absolutely you can get traded.’ The analogy I said to Bobby — these weren’t Gar’s words, they were mine — was, ‘If the Warriors offer Kevin Durant ARMANDO L. SANCHEZ/CHICAGO TRIBUNE and the Lakers offer LeBron Grizzlies center Joakim Noah guards Bulls forward Cristiano Felicio before fouling him during the first half of Wednesday night’s game. James, you’re getting traded.’ Basi- cally, if somebody offers some- BULLS 122, GRIZZLIES 110 thing the Bulls can’t refuse.” Bartelstein’s take squares with the version Portis related to the website. He didn’t think he was getting traded because talks with the Wizards didn’t start until just ‘Chicago so special’ before last Thursday’s deadline. Perception is reality? Joakim BULLS RECAP play.

RUTGERS 59, NORTHWESTERN 56 Wildcats suffer fifth straight loss By John Jackson | Associated Press

Geo Baker and Montez Mathis scored 12 points apiece, Eugene Omoruyi added 11 and Rutgers rallied in the second half for a 59-56 victory over Northwestern on Wednesday night at Welsh-Ryan Arena. Baker also had five rebounds and five assists as Rutgers (12-12, 5-9 Big Ten) snapped a three-game losing streak. Northwestern (12-12, 3-10) has dropped five straight. “It’s frustrating,” Northwestern coach Chris Collins said. “I really feel for the guys. Their attitudes have been great. They’re working really hard. Nobody likes losing. It’s not fun. You have to roll up your sleeves and find a way. “That’s two in a row now. Iowa, where we had a lead late, and tonight we had the ball at the rim to take the lead with 10 seconds left.” Vic Law led the Wildcats with 17 points, and A.J. Turner added 11. Law had another rough shooting night, going 6 of 16 from the field. The Scarlet Knights got their second conference road win of the season despite shooting 8 of 15 from the free-throw line and 3 of 16 on 3-pointers. Rutgers did shoot 48 percent from the field in the second half after a slow start. Both teams shot below 35 percent overall in the first half, resulting in a 22-22 tie. The Scarlet Knights picked up their pace offensively early in the second half. Leading 42-41, Rutgers ran off seven straight points for a 49-41 advantage with six minutes to play. The Scarlet Knights couldn’t score consistently enough down the stretch to put the game away. Law’s 3-pointer with 1:04 remaining trimmed the NU deficit to 55-53. Myles Johnson answered at the other end down low and was fouled by Dererk Pardon with 37.7 seconds left. Johnson missed the free throw — Rutgers’ seventh free-throw miss to that point.

SKIING End of an

American skier Mikaela Shiffrin competes in the women’s super G at the alpine ski World Championships on Feb. 5 in Are, Sweden. PONTUS LUNDAHL/TT/AP era Vonn’s retirement signals change for American team By Andrew Dampf Associated Press RE, Sweden — It was a telling sign that in Lindsey Vonn’s last race there was A only one other American skier com- peting. Two days later, the U.S. couldn’t even enter a squad for the team event at the world championships because it didn’t have enough skiers available. And as for the men’s slalom team, the one that produced the likes of Bode Miller and Ted Ligety? Well, that’s been practically eliminated. “We are dwindling,” Vonn said. “I can’t remember a time being on the U.S. Ski Team that there weren’t two or three people that could have taken the four spots [in each race]. We always had a full quota.” With Vonn’s retirement following that of Miller and Julia Mancuso in recent years, and with Ligety nearing the end of his career, it marks the end of a golden generation for the U.S. team. Vonn, Miller, Mancuso and Ligety won a combined 40 medals at major champi- onships — 15 at the Olympics and 25 at the worlds — stretching back to 2002.

Fox’s legal drama can’t muster much of a case

Nina Metz Chicago Close-up

As new shows premiere from every corner imaginable, network TV is still where you’ll find certain staples. That’s a good thing, I think. The old standbys, when done well, are a nice palate cleanser to more inventive or experi- mental shows you’ll find on premium cable or streaming. As cop shows and hospital shows continue find new life, it’s been a long few years since a legal drama along the lines of “Boston Legal” or “The Good Wife” got anyone excited, let alone had multi-season staying power. Fox isn’t going to break that losing streak with “Proven Innocent.” Pre- miering Friday, it is a sad trombone of a show with a title that sounds like a Scott Turow knockoff. The best of TV’s legal dramas run on a combination of wit, detective work, moral ambiguities and the power of a good argument and “Proven Innocent” seems lost on all fronts. Oh, and it takes place (and was filmed) in Chicago — a decision that seems guided by “Well, we have to set it somewhere” more than anything. The show’s sense of location is so generic as to be beside the point. The premise: After being wrongfully convicted of her friend’s murder, Mad- eline Scott (Rachelle Lefevre) is now partner in a small law firm that special- izes in similar cases. Each week she and her colleagues — fellow attorney Easy Boudreau (Russell Hornsby), investigator Bodie Quick (Vincent Kartheiser) and podcaster Violet Bell (Nikki M. James) — work from their enormous light-filled, brick- walled loft office to undo the wrongs of the criminal justice system. Kelsey Grammer plays the prosecutor who put Madeline in prison and is now her Riley Smith plays Forever Nemesis in court as she argues Levi Scott on Fox's the innocence of her clients. "Proven Innocent." Madeline’s brother, a recovering addict, also served time in prison and MICHAEL BECKER/FOX both he and his sister are still haunted by their friend’s death — the solving of which looks to be an ongoing storyline.

IN PERFORMANCE Superb Strauss, mixed Brahms at Orchestra Hall Concertgebouw makes rare Chicago appearance on tour By Howard Reich Chicago Tribune

When a great ensemble – such as the Royal Concert- gebouw Orchestra – tours the world, listeners pay attention. This explains the large crowd that poured into Orchestra Hall on Tuesday night, including members of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra presumably checking out the competi- tion. And though the CSO brooks few threats when it comes to tonal brilliance and comprehensive virtuos- ity, the musicians from Amsterdam offered allures of their own. Not surprisingly, the tour de force on a bread-and- butter program was Richard Strauss’ “Ein Heldenleben” (“A Hero’s Life”). The epic work long has been a test not only of an orchestra’s technical acuity but also its expressive and timbral range.

He could have jumped to four spades at his second turn to show a mini- mum game force, but he liked his heart holding opposite a singleton so he made the more encouraging bid of three Animal Crackers By Mike Osbun spades.

A successful diamond finesse was all he needed, but it was not to be. West won with the king and led another heart. Prickly City By Scott Stantis South had to rely on his vivid imagination to think of a lie of the cards that would let him take the rest of the tricks. He found one! He needed for East to have started with the king of clubs and at least four diamonds to the jack. He ruffed the heart high and cashed the ace of clubs. He crossed back to dummy with a trump and ruffed dummy’s last heart. South unblocked the high spade in his hand and then led a spade to dummy to cash the last spade. In the three-card ending, East was not able to keep more than two diamonds along with the king of clubs, so a diamond to the 10, followed by the ace and five of diamonds, gave South the 12 tricks that he needed. Well played!
