Hearst CEO sues his 84-year-old mother

Victor F. Ganzi (pictured), president and chief executive officer of Hearst Corp., the Chronicle’s owner, is suing his mother Gertrude Ganzi, 84, over control of a trust fund, according to the Village Voice. After her first husband died, Gertrude married her 59-year-old driver. Her sons are worried that their new stepdad might be a golddigger, so they’ve cut off the money and have gone to court. Mom is countersuing. Fredric Zinober of Tampa, one of at least five attorneys working for the Ganzi sons, told the Voice: “We intend to litigate aggressively.”
