Man, what a rough year for the Sun-Times. First, Robert Novak went down with a brain tumor, then Jay Mariotti left in cloud of dust and hissy-fits, and now columnist Robert Feder is likewise bidding adieu to take a break and pursue other opportunities. In his farewell letter, Feder says:

As someone who has lived here all his life, I can't recall a time when the Sun-Times wasn't part of my daily routine. It's the paper my family read on the South Side, where I was born, and the one my parents still subscribe to in Skokie, where I grew up. I am grateful for every day I've been part of this wonderful enterprise and humbled by the loyalty and support I've felt from so many readers.
Hey. Classy! Take notes, Jay.

Funny Ha-Ha is a guaranteed good time. Tonight's edition at The Hideout features a host of writers, but seems to be "headlined" by Eric Zorn. We love Zorn, but find it kind of funny his credit is "Chicago Tribune Columnist & Blogger" while Claire Zulkey's is "Blogger & TV Critic for The Onion & Los Angeles Times."
