Rahm denies liking Nickelback
http://www.redeyechicago.com/news/redeye-emanuel-spokeswoman-he-does-not-like-nickelback-20120911,0,392980.storyChicago Mayor Emanuel doesn't actually like Nickelback, despite a sign at the teachers strike that indicated otherwise.
When asked if the mayor is fond of the Canadian crooners, his spokeswoman Tarrah Cooper told RedEye in an e-mail "No."
A photo of a strike supporter carrying a sign that read "Rahm Emanuel likes Nickelback" went viral Monday night and was picked up on sites such as Gawker.
No word if the mayor will ask for a sign retraction.
UPDATE:
The man with the sign, 10th grade math teacher Mike Konkoleski, has changed it to say "Creed."

Thank you for that random break from heaviness.
