Chicago - A message from the station manager

The [Wednesday] Papers

By Steve Rhodes

Our very own Roger Wallenstein is on the Bruce Rauner beat today with a fine post we’ve unimaginatively called A Lesson For Bruce Rauner. It’s a little tale about a kid named Andy Velez, whom Rauner might be surprised to learn matters just as much as his daughter.
Meanwhile, I’ll be out most of the day. For the last couple of months, I’ve been working with the Urban Youth International Journalism Program run by We The People Media, mostly out of Paul Robeson High School. (More on that in the days to come.) Today we have a field trip to the Field Museum, so I won’t get back to Beachwood HQ until late afternoon.

Now that Bruce Rauner has finally admitted clouting his kid into Payton, isn’t it time to demand answers from Arne Duncan?

One more time: Edward Snowden didn’t “take it upon himself to reveal secrets.” Professional journalists and their news orgs. decided.
