If her actions over the past two years hadn’t exposed the “reformer” image she ran on as a sham, and if she hadn’t spent the last year shunning local outlets while granting blocks of time to the national ones to play softball toss, perhaps Mayor Lightfoot would be afforded a bit more slack on this. ===perhaps Mayor Lightfoot would be afforded a bit more slack on this=== LOLOL C’mon. She does press conferences almost every day in the city. Most of the reporters who attend are white. Pols can’t “pick the reporters who cover them” Not by race, or affiliations, and if Lightfoot wanted to “do the rounds” with papers/websites/etc that have people of color doing the asking, “ok”… but this type of ridiculous and truly ignorant idea that only persons of color will be granted… will be granted… the “two year, halfway” interview… and the outlets must comply with Lightfoot as to “who” can do the asking…
