Pittsburgh Newspaper Publisher Has Office Meltdown
tl;dr: The owner of Pittsburgh's biggest local newspaper showed up at the newsroom with his 12 year-old daughter, went on an insane rant, kept pushing and shoving the terrified daughter around the room, threatened employees, and complained about the newspaper "losing $300 million." The newspaper union is now in a legal battle with the newspaper company and published eyewitness accounts.

>In his heightened agitated state, Mr. Block continued to walk back and forth in front of the Guild bulletin board and continued with his belligerent behavior. He did not and would not calm down: He repeatedly shouted out rude comments about various current and former managers, mocking them (saying some had “gone to the dark side”), the newsroom staff (what he called “the working class”), and his ex-wife, and bemoaned what he called a loss of millions of dollars on the part of the company. He yelled at his daughter, up to her face: “You’re a Block don’t you forget it. You’re a Block, you’re not one of them,” repeatedly as he firmly jabbed his finger into her shoulder.
