Daley Blames - Who Else? - The Media For Oprah-geddon

Mayor Daley, fresh off his smackdown of the media over a question regarding Michael Scott on Wednesday, has wasted no time in lashing out once more. Remember Oprah's big party downtown to kick off her new season and the hubbub the local media - us included, admittedly - caused over it? Daley is saying it was that backlash that's contributed to Oprah's decision to pack up and move out in a few years. Speaking at a United Negro College Fund fundraiser last night, CBS 2 reports Daley said:

An Indiana man learned the hard way recently that referees for high school sports usually work another job. A man attending a game at Washington Township High School in Valparaiso, Indiana became so enraged he stormed out of the stands and confronted the group of referees calling the game. Unfortunately for him, one of the referees was also an Indiana State Trooper. According to the AP:

The trooper said he tried to walk away but the man pushed him. Fifield said he identified himself as a police officer and told the man he was under arrest, but the man said he couldn't be arrested by a referee. Officials said the man tried to choke Fifield with his whistle neckstrap. Fifield said that once the man realized he really had attacked a trooper, he retorted: "That's not fair.''
Yeah, dude, so totally not fair. The man has been charged with battery and resisting arrest.

For many of you, today is your first day back at work in two weeks.
