Christmas Trees: Real or Artificial

Here's a piece I did a few years back for WTTW's Chicago Tonight show on the seasonal debate over whether to buy a real or artificial Christmas tree. The star of the piece turned out to be Marcus Salone whom we encountered by chance on a Friday afternoon as he was cutting down his tree of choice. Subsequent research revealed that Salone was a Cook County criminal court judge. He subsequently was appointed to the Illinois Appellate bench. You might want to check out the details of his much earlier career as a Chicago police officer. My former colleague Phil Ponce introduces the piece.
