  1. Damn! The Sun Times said Nexstar is doing this to prepare for the debt they’re about to take on from Tegna, and that WGN is still very profitable, dominating in the mornings and 9pm, but has to cut from somewhere. Sean Lewis was one of the eight according to the Trib.
  2. Damn, that is wild and in broad daylight too; I’m glad she's ok. Reminds me when Cheryl Burton was attacked in the loop in 2008 in between shows.
  3. I wish Chicagoans revolted the same way when WLS get rid of their iconic News Series 2000 theme.
  4. Brad Edwards is out, according to FTV Live. No reason given and his bio is in fact removed from WBBM’s website.
  5. For some odd reason, I wouldn’t be surprised if she pops up at 22 W Washington.
  6. If there was an announcement, I didn’t see it, but he and Dina anchored the 9&10 last night.
  7. Last night was Joe’s last as a WGN-TV anchor. I was surprised to learn he won his first Emmy while there; he’d been in Portland I believe for two decades before. I know this will never happen, but I’d love to see Jim Williams come back from CBS and anchor 9&10 with Micah.
  8. Looks like the good folks at channel 7 pissed off viewers, blurring the faces of white gun holders intimidating protesters at a NW In diana march. After the backlash, WLS deleted their social media posting of the tape, and replaced it with the raw footage.

  9. Freakin’ thugs...
  10. I’m could’ve sworn I saw this posted here earlier, but anyway, the axe swung at 22 W Washington today: https://www.robertfeder.com/2020/05/27/mass-layoffs-cbs-2-hit-pam-zekman-valued-members-team/
  11. Sheeesh! It’s about time!
  12. It’s been a few days https://www.robertfeder.com/2020/04/21/cbs-2-opens-terrific-new-chapter-247-streaming-news-service/
  13. I’ll miss Steve too. I was pissed when Mark whomever from WFLD came in to replace Steve on the 9 pm news. I grew up watching Steve and Allison at 9. I was really hoping for a message from her today. I hope Allison is doing well and best wishes to Steve.
  14. Rafer’s out...
  15. The Cubs posted a video on Facebook thanking WGN-TV for 72 years https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10157367414205659&id=30530605658
