BREAKING NEWS – Chicago, Illinois – American Airlines has criticized a last-minute deal cut by Mayor Rahm Emanuel to expand O’Hare International Airport, saying it would give competitor United Airlines an unfair business advantage. At a news conference, Emanuel defended the deal as allowing competitors to “grow and keep all the others honest when it comes to pricing,” and that consumers will gain “by that healthy competition that did not exist before.” However, an unnamed source that works for the mayor, stated that the real reason why Emanuel agreed to the deal, is because United Airlines promised to have a plane ready for him 24/7, so he can escape from the Windy City with his life, in the likelihood that Chicagoans eventually run him out of town.
