She does have a take no shit attitude, I'll give her that. Out of all the big city mayors in the U.S., she's the most hardball. Her strategy with CTU was the same as it was with making the city's 2020 budget: Do it my way or go fuck yourself.
The interview itself is what you'd expect. The anchor was on Lightfoot's side and didn't even try to hide it. She kept lobbing Lightfoot softball questions about how much parents must be struggling to keep kids at home and how much kids must miss school. Setting Lightfoot up to look like the school system's savior.
