CBS 2 is Proud

CBS 2 is proud to bring together resident and community leaders for a town hall meeting to talk about ways to keep everyone safe...

The guest list for the invitation-only meeting included about 70 very high-profile members of our community who were tapped specifically because of their expertise or insights into gang culture or law enforcement.

Among them were: Chicago Police Supt. Jody Weis, the Rev. Jesse Jackson, Father Michael Pfleger of St. Sabina Church, Chicago School Board President Rufus Williams, Jesus Garcia, president of the Little Village Development Corporation, and CBS 2 legal analyst Irv Miller.
Let me guess. The consensus was for more "gun control."
"Invitation only"? You mean it was a private "public meeting"? Nothing like stacking the panel with rabid advocates and keeping out alternative thought to reach a foregone conclusion.

Because when you hold open public meetings, who knows what unexpected things might happen?

CBS 2, you have nothing to be proud of. Decent "Authorized Journalists" would be shamed at presenting manipulated and engineered events as "news."

Still, when she talks about "leaving with a mandate and making some radical changes," her credibility does go up a notch.

No audience manipulation going on either, what with the melancholy piano solo in the film clip, the sympathetic announcer, the crafted script. Still, it's a wonder no one saw the irony of the segment with Blair Holt and "his bright future snuffed out," particularly with Snuffy "I didn't know it meant that" Pfleger on the panel.
