"Best place to work for in Chicago if you want to work in news. Working there is like working with a family. Everyone knows each other, shouts at each other across the newsroom, and helps each other put on a great show. It's the funnest place to work, but if you want to move up, you have to move out. There isn't much upward mobility."
