Comments on: Clues in Columbus Airline’s Death… http://columbusbestblog.com/business/clues-in-columbus-airlines-death/ A blog about the best of Columbus & Central Ohio by Maureen McCabe of Real Living HER Tue, 06 Jan 2009 21:53:13 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Maureen McCabe http://columbusbestblog.com/business/clues-in-columbus-airlines-death/#comment-21276 Maureen McCabe Wed, 09 Apr 2008 02:42:08 +0000 http://columbusbestblog.com/business/clues-in-columbus-airlines-death/#comment-21276 "Would you be surprised to know that the Columbus Dispatch was a key investor in Skybus" Not in the least.. Would anyone in Columbus be surprised that the Columbus Dispatch was one of the initial investors in Skybus? If you lived in Columbus and did not know the Dispatch was an investor what rock are you living under? I'll go back and look for biased coverage of Skybus. I don't remember that what I read in the Columbus Dispatch about Columbus did not have a disclaimer on it that the Wolfe (Wolf? Wolff family) and some Columbus Dispatch business vernture was one of the investors that provided the seed money. Thanks for the comment. “Would you be surprised to know that the Columbus Dispatch was a key investor in Skybus”

Would you be surprised to know that the Columbus Dispatch was a key investor in Skybus? Ever notice how completely biased the Dispatch was when it came to glowing press coverage? Anyone find this information unsettling? IMO the Dispatch was morally & ethically obligated to disclose its ownership interest in Skybus. I guess the concept of journalistic integrity is an "old School" idea for the bean counters at the Columbus Dispatch. Let's wait and see how much the executives get from the pile of cash left over as a "Reward" for their efforts. One should take a look and see who invested in this debacle.

People are very vulnerable when traveling and it is a crime to take advantage of them. I hope that the executives over at Skybus end up before a Senate Hearing this fall! <strong> Edited out a second instance of his link</strong> This completely sucks for the many folks who are stuck someplace unfamiliar.

Let's see what develops before we point fingers. The Skybus model, just like the Ryanair model is sound. Before we get too deep in this. Let’s see what develops before we point fingers.
