Interesting Chicago News
I think Amy Jacobson’s Wikipedia entry sums it all up nicely:
Amy Jacobson was a general assignment reporter for WMAQ, the NBC television affiliate in Chicago, Illinois, USA, from 1996 to 2007.
On July 6, 2007, a videotape of Jacobson, clad in a bikini, and her children at the home of Craig Stebic, husband of Lisa Stebic, a missing woman, was made public by WBBM, the local CBS affiliate. Ms. Jacobson had been covering the story of Ms. Stebic’s unexplained disappearance.
On July 10, 2007, Jacobson and WMAQ negotiated her exit, following an investigation by the station.
On Monday, July 7, 2008, the Chicago Sun-Times reported “On Monday, Jacobson filed a multimillion-dollar lawsuit against CBS-owned WBBM-Channel 2 for airing the tape of her at the home of Craig Stebic, the southwest suburban Plainfield man whose estranged wife, Lisa, has been missing since April 2007.”
What’s up with former Texas Senator Phil Gramm
Former Texas Sen. Phil Gramm has emerged as the key behind-the-scenes economics/Wall Street guy for John McCain and is being touted as the treasury secretary in waiting. Since 2002, Gramm has been an executive with the U.S. operations of UBS, the giant Swiss Bank.
Someone close to me use to refer to him as “Ol’ Turkey Neck.” And everytime I hear about him that’s the first thing that pops in my mind. I’m also surprised he never became president of TAMU – seems like it would have been a win-win.
