<itunes:summary>Commonly referred to as “The First Lady of the Press,” former White House Bureau Chief Helen Thomas is a trailblazer, breaking through barriers for women reporters while covering every president since John F. Kennedy. For 57 years, Thomas served as White House correspondent for United Press International, and she has left an indelible mark on U.S. journalism.&#13;Over the past half century, the relationship between the White House and the White House press corps has moved through a stunning evolution. What was once nearly a cooperative relationship has become much more adversarial, with the current administration challenging specific media outlets for publishing and broadcast decisions. The senior ranking member of the White House press corps, Helen Thomas will discuss this relationship, its evolution and how the change has affected the quality of journalism in the United States. </itunes:summary>

<itunes:summary>Please join Senators Cronin, Dillard, Pankau, Radogno, and Roskam for a special briefing Wednesday evening to review the impact of Senate Bill 27, the burden it creates for future taxpayers and the risk of future raids on retirement funds.&#13;Last spring, Governor Blagojevich and his legislative allies pushed through a massive raid on the state's retirement systems in Senate Bill 27 (Now Public Act 94-0004). The legislature voted to divert funds owed to the retirement systems by $1.2 billion in 2005. This year, the General Assembly is scheduled to divert another $1.1 billion, for a total two-year raid of $2.3 billion.&#13;The retirement system raids can be reversed, but only if the public understands the issue and is vocal about demanding changes. The retirement system briefing is a first step to educate the public on this critical issue. &#13;Return to Lecture Series.&#13;Return to CODcast main.&#13;</itunes:summary>
