Chicago Tonight: The Week in Review: 3/22


On this edition of Chicago Tonight: The Week in Review with Eddie Arruza, CPS unveils its school closings plan, which will impact 30,000 students. Rosemont Mayor Bradley Stephens throws a curveball into the Wrigley Field renovations, pitching the idea of moving the team to his suburb. Cook County Commissioner William Beavers is convicted of tax evasion; more pension reform machinations in Springfield; and Attorney General Lisa Madigan still hasn’t declared whether she’ll run for governor. And in sports, a Chicago Bears brouhaha over letting go of a legend, as the team parts ways with aging middle linebacker Brian Urlacher.
