Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel Shops Around for a Cable News Gig

• https://www.thedailybeast.com, by Maxwell Tani

Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel may finally get paid for a job he's been doing for free for years: offering opinions on national politics.

Emanuel announced in September that he wouldn't seek reelection as mayor and has since been largely mum about his post-mayoral plans. But he has attended meetings in New York with top executives at MSNBC and CNN in recent weeks, and discussed a potential future as a cable news pundit, according to several sources familiar with the conversations.

In recent months, the outgoing Democratic mayor has been represented by agents with William Morris Endeavor, the talent agency and entertainment behemoth where his brother Ari Emanuel is the co-CEO.
