"Chicagoans in search of reliable political coverage in today’s fractured media environment have a new source this campaign season. But whether that source is news or recycled propaganda from a prominent political activist is most debatable. As are the actions of the big donor who’s apparently picking up the tab. At issue is the recent appearance in mailboxes all around town of Chicago City Wire, a broadsheet publication that bills itself just below its nameplate as 'Real data. Real News.'"
The outpouring of liberal angst on NextDoor was startling. It’s as if reading something other than MSM would kill them. Some recipients called the Post Office to complain. They don’t complain about other political missives, but this one really got them heated. What was gratifying was the majority response: basically, if you don’t like it, chuck it … though you may want to consider reading another view.

I sadly couldn’t avoid seeing the NBC nightly news yesterday and they have resorted to a banner at the top of the screen that said something to the effect of “Only Facts, real news”. I laughed so… Read more »

Chicago’s Number One Source For Left Wing Fake Political News — Crain’s Chicago Business — Chicago’s Anti-Business Business-Newspaper — Goes After Conservative Media Outlets — That Expose The Bias And Fraud Of Left Wing Fake Journalists
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
