Michael F. et al: Along our the lines of our conversation about national interviews for the Supt. yesterday, I agree that we should do more of them. However, I don't like the topic of this one and I have concerns about accommodating them the day-of multiple protests. Good here with declining?

David Brown on 8/15 Dear Chicago Police Department, We would like to invite Superintendent David Brown to join us as a guest on CNN’s Smerconish show this Saturday, 8/15 during the 9am Eastern / 8am Central hour. We would like to discuss the recent story about Chicago in the Washington Post. Here is the link: https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2020/08/12/chicago-portland-protester-charges/. Would Superintendent Brown be available for a live interview with Michael Smerconish that would last about five minutes? We could do the interview from a television studio in Chicago or from Sup. Brown’s home or office computer using Cisco or Skype, which are similar to Zoom. Please let me know.
