On this edition of Chicago Tonight: The Week in Review with Joel Weisman, Mayor Rahm Emanuel goes on the attack in his latest campaign ad, and promises tax-free zones in impoverished neighborhoods. Challenger Jesús "Chuy" García earns key endorsements from the Rev. Jesse Jackson Sr., Emil Jones, and Willie Wilson. Also, the Illinois Supreme Court tackles the legality of the state's pension reform law. And, City Council grants preliminary approval to provide parkland to The University of Chicago if it's the chosen site for the Obama Presidential Library.
