If it happened in Chicago over the past 50 years, Jim Williams probably either saw it, covered it as a reporter, or has a story somehow connected to it. Jim recently stepped away from his full time anchoring duties at CBS News Chicago. He shares his insights about the media, his beloved Cubs, his time as press secretary for Richard M. Daley, and the job he had as a teenager that became the foundation for everything that followed.
