Salamat sa pagkakataong magbigay ng patotoo sa iyo ngayon tungkol sa kahalagahan ng lokal na pag-aari ng media na nagpapanatili ng integridad ng tumpak, hindi partisan, at mausisa na pag-uulat.<\/small><\/p><p><small>Ang pangalan ko ay Brian Gladstein mula sa Common Cause Illinois. Kami ay isang nonpartisan, grassroots na organisasyon na nakatuon sa pagpapanumbalik ng mga pangunahing halaga ng demokrasya ng Amerika, muling pag-imbento ng isang bukas, tapat, at may pananagutan na pamahalaan na gumagana para sa pampublikong interes, at pagbibigay ng kapangyarihan sa mga ordinaryong tao na iparinig ang kanilang mga boses. Mayroon kaming 400,000 miyembro sa buong bansa at 3,000 aktibong miyembro dito mismo sa Illinois.<\/small><\/p><p><small>Ang labis na halaga ng pera na ginagastos sa ating mga halalan na may layuning makaapekto sa pampublikong patakaran ay nasa isang makasaysayang mataas. Halimbawa, mahigit 2 bilyong dolyar ang ginugol noong presidential race noong nakaraang taon sa pagitan nina Barack Obama at Mitt Romney.<\/small><\/p><p><small>Now, some of the biggest political contributors and owners of the second largest privately owned company in the United States are trying to buy the Chicago Tribune to advance their own personal and corporate ideology. Koch Industries wants to purchase the Tribune's nine daily newspapers, including the Chicago Tribune, LA Times, Baltimore Sun, The Orlando Sentinel, and The Hartford Courant.<\/small><\/p><p><small>Ang mga mata ng bansa ay nasa atin. Noong nakaraang buwan ay nangolekta kami ng petisyon na may 500,000 pirma na tumututol sa pagbili ng mga papeles ng Tribune sa Koch Brothers. Samantala, sa nakalipas na dalawang linggo lamang, mahigit 500 taga-Chicago ang nangako ng kanilang suporta para sa resolusyong nasa harap mo ngayon.<\/small><\/p><p><small>Common Cause is concerned what a move like this will do to the important role that journalism has in our great city. The Chicago Tribune has been a major force in Chicago journalism since its' founding in 1847 and currently is the eighth largest newspaper in the United States by circulation. The Chicago Tribune has a long history of local ownership and management, which has produced decades of high-quality news coverage, resulting in 25 Pulitzer Prizes. The Chicago Tribune plays a vital role informing the public through unbiased accounts of the news of the day and aggressive investigative journalism.<\/small><\/p><p><small>Ang lokal na pagmamay-ari ay nakakatulong upang matiyak na ang pahayagan ay patuloy na magpapakita ng matalas na pag-unawa sa pulitikal, negosyo at kultural na aspeto ng ating Lungsod at mananatiling may pananagutan sa mga residente nito.<\/small><\/p><p><small>But if we allow one purchaser such as the Koch Brothers to purchase all nine of the Tribune Company's newspapers it could create an informational monopoly where profits outweigh journalistic integrity and open the door to ideological bias.<\/small><\/p><p><small>Ang bid ng Koch Brothers na bilhin ang mga papeles ng Tribune ay sumasalungat sa karamihan ng ibinibigay ng Chicago Tribune sa ating dakilang lungsod. Narito ang isang listahan <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seiu.org\/2013\/06\/top-10-reasons-to-stop-the-koch-brothers-from-buyi.php\" target=\"_blank\">ibinigay ng SEIU<\/a> of the 10 reasons of why we think that the city must not only pass this resolution but do whatever it possibly can do stop the Koch's from buying the Tribune Papers.<\/small><\/p><li><small>Pag-atake sa mga imigrante.
