Chicago Tonight: The Week in Review: 5/15


Joel Weisman and his panel of journalists discuss Moody’s downgrading of Chicago's bond rating to junk status. What new revenue will be necessary? Is it time for a casino? Will bankruptcy be an option? The Obama Library comes to town – where will we put it? And will the Obamas live here? The Illinois House decisively rejects Rauner right-to-work proposal. 

Panel:
Craig Dellimore, Newsradio 780 AM & 105.9 FM
