For the Chicago area : Making Sense of 2020 from WTTW (also a quiz I got 11 right)

https://news.wttw.com/making-sense-of-2020

MAKING SENSE OF 2020, WTTW News journeys back to the beginning of the year to offer a revealing look at how 2020 unfolded in Chicago.

As 2020 in Chicago began, the major stories included the Senate trial for the impeached President and the rollout of legalized recreational marijuana in Illinois. But just a few weeks later, a developing crisis appeared on the horizon: COVID-19. By mid-March as local cases multiplied, Governor J.B. Pritzker ordered all schools closed and then shut down the state, upending the everyday lives of Chicago area residents seemingly overnight. MAKING SENSE OF 2020 takes audiences through what happened next, and how WTTW News mobilized and innovated to provide its community with vital information.

Pays to watch Chicago Tonight most every evening. But my memory is not perfect. Most likely because the spouse and I chugged an entire bottle of Veuve Cliquot in about an hour. Zonk!
