Dear Steve,
At Chicago Tonight, the opinions of our viewers are truly important to us. We’d like to invite you to take part in an important survey to assist our continuing efforts to make Chicago Tonight as enriching as possible. As an extra way of saying thank you, the first 40 people to respond will win a family pass (general admission for any combination of 4 people) to the Museum of Science and Industry, which is presenting the time-honored holiday tradition, Christmas Around the World and Holidays of Light, now through January 9.

The Keith-O Chronicles
How It’s Playing In Chicago
“Keith Olbermann on Monday night thanked supporters and criticiized NBC, breaking his silence concerning MSNBC’s two-show suspension for making unauthorized campaign contributions to three Democratic candidates in an open letter to viewers of his Countdown program,” Phil Rosenthal writes for the Tribune.
“In the letter [full text at the Trib link], distributed to the Chicago Tribune and other outlets by a representative, Olbermann apologized to supporters ‘for having precipitated such anxiety and unnecessary drama,’ but said he ‘previously knew nothing’ of the NBC News policy he breached with his donations and noted the rule was ‘inconsistently applied.'”

The Cubs’ Crappy Undercover Boss
By Steve Rhodes
Even I’m amazed every week at how Undercover Boss reveals just how out of touch America’s corporate suite is with the companies they run and the employees they rule over. Are they really so clueless about their own organizations?
Yes. Yes they are.
And the latest case in point really hits home: Cubs co-owner Todd Ricketts looked as if he’d never worked a hard day in his life last night.
Dude.
