Rahm's press corps reduced to doing damage control
My favorite S-T headline. But just who is EVERBODY anyway? |
"If you want to throw something at the cameras, go ahead, have at it. You let ‘em know the City of Chicago is on watch for the children of Chicago.” -- Rahm EmanuelThe mayor's war chest is overstuffed with money. He has the political backing of many of the biggest and richest players in both political parties, including the POTUS. He has as yet, no announced opponent in the upcoming election. His expensive City Hall and CPS media spinners need an entire floor to fit them all in and his golf buddies even own the Sun-Times. .
My question then is, why is his press coverage so bad? Why is his message so out of control? Why does it seem like his PR people have been reduced to doing damage control and just about every editorial in both papers are dissing him and especially his ed policies?
Possible answers--
- It's because Rahm is such a a-hole that every reporter in town hates him.
- It's because his policies, especially around the school closings, are hurting so
