The news in the news is moving so fast it’s difficult sometimes to keep up with it, and even more difficult to decide what to say about it. A good example of that is the story about a popular radio talk show in Chicago and the two on-air people who host it. The well-known hard-right political conservatives Dan Proft and Amy Jacobson, to whom, by the way, I am not related. Proft and Jacobson were on the air joking and laughing at and mocking the tears of Gus Walz watching his father, Tim Walz, accept the Democrat nomination for Vice President. Gus Walz is 17 years old. He is suffering from verbal and learning disorders. He got up from his seat in the United Center crying and saying over and over again, “That’s my dad! That’s my dad!” Seeing Gus on television, I could read his lips, “That’s my dad!” And I could tell how hard he was struggling to smile. Now the last chapter of my story is about Amy Jacobson being the coach of boys and girls team volleyball at Amundsen High School in Chicago on North Damen Ave. As a result of the fun she was having making fun of the disabled teenager, Gus Walz, she is no longer a coach at Amundsen High School, which, as I see it, is the right thing to have happened to Miss Jacobson and may happen to others having that kind of fun.
