Listener calls in and reports seeing what looks like ammo and several military planes flying near O'Hare airport. Asks host to check it out. They do. Police department and airport confirm the military presence was because they were to have performed a ceremony for the funeral but the family didn't want it.
CON station quickly put the story into the evening news report with this spin:
A soldier was buried today apparently the family is feuding. The mother spoke the media and blasted Bush for the war. The mother says her son tried to get out of the military. The father and siblings were in the military and report that the deceased was happy to be in the military.
