On this edition of Chicago Tonight: The Week in Review with Joel Weisman, a Facebook fight over a boy turns deadly. One teenage girl fatally shot, another charged with her murder. Local and national reaction to the NBA’s lifetime ban on L.A. Clippers owner Donald Sterling following his racist remarks. Also, a federal probe into Governor Pat Quinn’s embattled anti-violence program.

Joel Weisman and his panel of journalists discuss the week's top headlines.
