Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot will grant interviews only to 'Black or Brown journalists,' local reporters say

Reporters out of Chicago are alleging that Democratic Mayor Lori Lightfoot is now granting interviews only to journalists of color. 

NBC 5 Chicago political reporter Mary Ann Ahern took to Twitter on Tuesday to mark the "midway point" of Lightfoot's first term in office and apparently acknowledged her failed effort to land an interview. 

"As ⁦@chicagosmayor reaches her two year midway point as mayor, her spokeswoman says Lightfoot is granting 1 on 1 interviews - only to Black or Brown journalists," Ahern tweeted. 

 

Reverse racism?

BLM is only making a mockery of themselves at this point. They are so ridiculous it’s impossible to take anything they say seriously 

Branco needs to step up his game and deliver something along these lines.

Protesters chant outside Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot's home: 'It's not enough to be Black'

More than 300 protesters crowded outside Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot's home Thursday, saying she has disappointed the city, according to local reports.

Demonstrators posted photos and videos of the protest on social media, using the hashtag #2Years2Much as the mayor marked two years in office. 

Photos show protesters carrying signs that gave Lightfoot "F" marks in education, COVID-19 recovery, police reform, housing and so on, photos posted to social media show.

"It’s not enough to be Black, it’s not enough to be female, you gotta be right," Tara Stamps, a veteran Chicago Public Schools teacher, said, according to Fox 32 Chicago.

Forty community organizers sponsored the event, including the Chicago Teachers Union, Black Lives Matter Chicago, Illinois Raise Your Hand, GoodKids MadCity and others, according to a Facebook event page.

Yeah this is dumb.

You don't give out a position for the sake of diversity. You give it to the player you feel will help your team the most.

Not everything is about race. Jacksonville felt Tebow was the best option. That's it.

This is the shit that will get Trump elected again.

A segment on First Take will lead to another Trump term?

I don't think Stephen A Smith has enough pull to sway an election. 

I think you're missing the point bud.

It's not Stephen A. Smith. Or any one person. It's the narrative that gets shoved down people's throats on social media.
