Kristen McQueary and Tom McNamee, Editorial Page Editor of the Chicago Sun-Times and Kristen McQueary of the Tribune Editorial Board are our guests this week. We discuss the Supreme Court ruling prohibiting police from searching electronic devices without a search warrant, the appropriateness of naming a City facility for Mayor Byrne and the so-far underwhelming Bruce Rauner campaign.
We also talk about the ever-evolving role of the print editions of major newspapers, as they become places for analysis and opinion and less the resource for breaking news. That’s a big part of the reason the Trib will be adding another full page of opinion and op-eds to its daily output.
