: WGN’s ailing news anchor hopes to find answers and get some rest
: With just five days to go before the launch of WGN-Channel 9’s new 5:30 p.m. newscast, ailing news anchor Allison Payne is checking into the Mayo Clinic.
: Payne said she was grateful to the Rev. Jesse L. Jackson, who used his influence to get her an immediate appointment at the Mayo Clinic. “If he hadn’t called, I know I would have had to wait months to get in,” she said
1) I did NOT realize there was such a waiting list to be treated there. Wierd.
2) Random to shoutout to Jesse Jackson after all his recent drama.
