Judge won't throw out charges against Black

Former Hollinger International CEO Conrad Black and his associate David Radler will have to stand trial on securities fraud charges after a federal judge refused to toss them last week.
Today's Chicago Sun-Times reports that the judge ruled the lawsuit can continue. Hollinger International at one time owned hundreds of newspapers in the U. S., including the Sun-Times, The Carthage Press, and the Neosho Daily News.
SEC investigators claim Black and Radler bilked Hollinger out of millions of dollars.
