^ Even better, Chicago is outperforming the metropolitan area & State in population growth as well as growth in income.
But I disagree with you that media is somehow at fault for reporting bad news. Murders DO deserve attention. When somebody dies of a gunshot, particularly a child, it is only a journalistic obligation to report on it and ask "why does so much of this keep happening?"
