On Tuesday’s episode of Afternoon Shift we’ll talk about land grabs of all sorts. First James Miller will discuss how ESPN staked its claim and made sports media its own. Our review panel in The 3@3 will touch on the sore spot Cuban-Americans have over Castro’s land grab and how Ozzie Guillen inflamed those passions last week. We’ll talk about Facebook’s $1 billion deal that gobbles up Instagram in our tech segment. And finally Dennis Rodkin and Ashley Gross will talk about how Chicago has dealt with the foreclosure crisis.
