In these uncertain times for the newspaper industry, it pays to think "outside of the newspaper box" when it comes to coverage of breaking news events. So the Chicago Tribune is trying its hand at live-blogging! And they picked the perfect unfolding story: Droopy-eyed comedian Bill Murray's parachute jump at the Chicago Air and Water Show!

Zissou's perilous skydive:
This story is being updated as Bill Murray makes his skydive. Refresh this page often to make sure you're seeing the latest. UPDATE: 3:21 p.m. Now he's moving away from the podium. 3:15 p.m. Murray has not yet removed his helmet. It doesn't look like he's going to speak for a while.
That's all the news now, but check back often. And buy some newspapers tomorrow!
