@fspielman Accepted or claimed or took advantage of would be much better reporting than "got". It's a lazy word. You've been at this long enough that it shouldn't be prohibitively difficult.

@rockisland250 @brianstelter Drivers listened to news radio.

@brianstelter This probably flummoxed you Brian but one of the "challenging economic realities" is that no one listens to CBS News Radio anymore.

A second memo from Bari Weiss and Tom Cibrowski says CBS News Radio is shutting down. Here's the memo:
Today, we informed our CBS News Radio team and approximately 700 affiliated stations that we will end the service on May 22, 2026.
Unfortunately, this decision means that all positions within the CBS News Radio team are being eliminated. We understand how difficult this news is for our staff and their colleagues, who have worked side by side with us to cover some of the most significant stories of our time.
While this was a necessary decision, it was not an easy one. A shift in radio station programming strategies, coupled with challenging economic realities, has made it impossible to continue the service. We are sharing this announcement now to fulfill our commitments to our radio partners and affiliates, which require advance notice of the service’s conclusion.
For nearly 100 years, CBS News Radio has delivered original reporting to the nation—from Edward R. Murrow’s World War II reports in London to today’s daily White House updates. Our signature broadcast, “World News Roundup,” remains the longest-running newscast in the country. CBS News Radio served as the foundation for everything we have built since 1927.
The coming weeks will be difficult for the team members who have worked tirelessly at CBS News Radio. We are committed to supporting these valued colleagues with care and respect as we wind down operations. They have been critical to our success and remain treasured friends and professionals. We thank them deeply for their contributions.
Thank you all for your dedication and for the compassion you show one another as we move forward.
Bari and Tom

Just in: CBS News execs tell employees that layoffs are happening today.
"These are very hard choices and today is a difficult day," Bari Weiss and Tom Cibrowski say.

For the past five years, Mayor Brandon Johnson’s budget director has illegally gotten property tax breaks on a South Loop condo she owns but hasn’t lived in since 2019. chicago.suntimes.com/the-watchdogs/…

Here's the full memo from CBS News editor in chief Bari Weiss and CBS News president/executive editor Tom Cibrowski about today's layoffs:
Good morning,
Today we are reducing the size of our workforce, and employees who are affected will be notified by the end of the day.
We recognize that this is a difficult time for those who will be leaving CBS News. Because these aren't just names on a list. They are talented, committed colleagues who have been critical to our success. We'll treat them all with care and respect.
It’s no secret that the news business is changing radically, and that we need to change along with it. New audiences are burgeoning in new places, and we are pressing forward with ambitious plans to grow and invest so that we can be there for them. That means some parts of our newsroom must get smaller to make room for the things we must build to remain competitive.
But these are very hard choices and today is a difficult day.
This is a tough message to receive at any time, and especially in the middle of an exceptionally intense news cycle. This organization is working its heart out to deliver for our audience. We're so grateful to all of you, and we thank you for handling this difficult news with compassion.

@AJManaseer I agree. However, Rogers Park has seen a couple of these type of murders over the years — all unsolved. One guy was walking his dog at Loyola Park and was fatally shot in the head.
English
Beyond tragic but this story doesn’t pass the smell test. People don’t just ambush and shoot random strangers - without robbing them - and then run away.
My guess is either the witnesses are lying about what happened, the shooter knew the victim, or it was mistaken identity.
Regardless, how unimaginably awful for her family and friends. 💔

A ski-masked gunman emerged from behind a light beacon and murdered an 18-year-old woman who was gathered with friends this morning at Loyola Beach. The victim’s social media indicates she was a student at Loyola University. The attack appears random. cwbchicago.com/2026/03/gunman…

I'm sick of these city council wars blocking everything I elected my mayor to do. Excellent veto @ChicagosMayor

Breaking: Mayor Brandon Johnson announces he will VETO the legislation passed by aldermen to freeze wage increases for tipped workers. “The self-proclaimed Democrats who stripped away resources and wages from hard working Chicagoans is, it’s shameful, quite frankly”

🇺🇸🇯🇵 ¡HISTÓRICO !
La Primera Ministra de Japón, Sanae Takaichi, acaba de lanzar una bomba nuclear diplomática en la Casa Blanca:
«¡Solo tú, Donald Trump, puedes traer la paz verdadera al mundo!»
«Solo tú puedes aplastar el régimen iraní y restaurar el orden global.»
Y no se quedó ahí. Mirando fijamente al presidente, declaró con una convicción que estremeció la sala:
«Estoy dispuesta a movilizar a TODOS los aliados de la comunidad internacional. JUNTOS, bajo tu liderazgo, lograremos lo imposible.»
«Por eso estoy aquí HOY, en la Casa Blanca, para entregarte este mensaje cara a cara: el mundo te necesita AHORA.»
La Iron Lady de Japón acaba de apostar TODO por Trump como el único capaz de imponer la paz a través de la fuerza.

¡MOMENTO HISTÓRICO EN LA CASA BLANCA! La flamante primera ministra de Japón, Sanae Takaichi, saluda en perfecto inglés al presidente Trump… ¡antes de pedir intérprete! "Gracias, Donald, por invitarme hoy a la Casa Blanca." 🇺🇸🇯🇵🔥 Y entonces solicita formalmente al intérprete. TRUMP (riendo y con complicidad): "Tienen un intérprete fantástico… ¡lo conozco desde los tiempos de Shinzo!"

@RayDonovanII One lousy news story after another. Don’t forget another Loop puncher, the whack job on the train with two hammers threatening to kill white people and the riflemen robbing people in broad daylight downtown. As you said, what is rock bottom?

This city is a complete disaster. A Loyola University murdered in cold blood. A CFD dies in fire started by an arsonist. Businesses leaving left and right. The CTA is unridable. The 5th floor of this administration has done ZERO. Yet, voter turnout for the primaries were abysmal. What’s it going to take #Chicago ?

@douglasritz @isaiahrmartin Didn’t Blago go to prison for trying to sell such a seat? Yet, Pritzker can buy one?

@isaiahrmartin “JB Pritzker systematically dismantled the Illinois Republican Party”
A billionaire who never had a job in life just bought a Senate seat.
So much winning here!!!

"Victim?"
A victim would have called the police after he lost his wallet and used his dying words to ask for help as 911 dispatch struggled to locate his position.
This man is no victim. Dare I call him a hero?
