Annenberg began his career as a rough-hewn Chicago newspaper salesman for the Hearst Corporation . He eventually built a fortune and a successful publishing company called Triangle Publications, Inc. Moe's fortunes waned when, during the Roosevelt administration (to which his papers had been less than kind), he was indicted, like Capone, for Tax Evasion and, after pleading guilty, was sentenced to three years. His health failed during that time. In 1942, shortly after his release from prison, Annenberg died at age 65.
