During her second stint at WMAQ-TV, Marin also worked for Chicago’s PBS station, WTTW. This video pays proper tribute to Carol, and showcases why many people considered her the best reporter in the business. She was straight forward, tough (she played hardball way better than Chris Matthews), yet compassionate and professional. They don’t make them like her anymore.

WTTW paid tribute to Carol this past Thursday evening. (Starts at 35:09.)

Carol Marin’s home base of 35 years was Chicago’s powerhouse NBC station, WMAQ-TV. They also paid tribute to Carol this past Friday night.

Enjoy retirement, Carol. It is so well deserved.
