I don’t know anything about that reporter but I do give her Kudos for going outside of the approved agenda and asking some tough questions.

“Game on!

I’ve learned the new-and-improved Rahm (Emanuel) has a way to punish the press when they report on stories he doesn’t like. He cuts off access.....NBC 5 political reporter Mary Ann Ahern, writing in her station’s blog The Ward Room

Ahern exlains:

When we asked why we were left out of the mix [of stations offered one-on-one interviews with Emanuel], the Emanuel communications team implied they weren’t happy with the coverage of the VIP inauguration. They didn’t challenge facts, but were upset with tone. So they left us out.

The inauguration cum coronation seems to be provoking more despair and resignation among Chicagoans than enthusiasm.”
