April Fool's Day: Rahm wants to "learn more about himself," seeks City Hall documents

The Chicago Sun-Times reports:
Mayor Rahm Emanuel's press office is marking April Fool's Day with a funny release, a fake announcement that Emanuel filed a Freedom of Information Act for documents to "learn more about himself."

The release, written by Emanuel's City Hall press office, cleverly mocks Emanuel on several fronts: his incessant brags on job creation, his constant use of the F word and the resistance of City Hall to grant some FOIA requests from reporters.
