Hmmm….The media has shielded the mayor since she moved the the 5th floor. Now she’s going to blame them? The thankless rat!

The media doesn’t report the full depth of the violence, ignores as much crime as they can get away with, sugar coats whatever stories they can, ignores the total incompetence of the prosecutors and judges, and does not follow up on the thousands of repeat offenders and their lack of jail time, and STILL, the people’s perception is “that the entire city is unsafe”. Hahahahaha!!!
The mayor can get her shills in the media to write puff pieces that Chicago is not a hellhole, BUT, everyone knows that Chicago IS a hellhole.
