Columnist Eric Zorn started at the
Tribune in 1980; cultural critic Steve Johnson started six years later. Now, they’re among the more than three dozen editorial staffers who’ve left—taking buyouts offered under the

They join hosts Sheila Solomon and Charlie Meyerson for another edition of the
Chicago Public Square / Rivet360 podcast,
Chicago Media Talks.
