Bob Ramsey, WCIU GM to run all Weigel properties (WDJT, WBND, WCIU, etc). WDJT's longtime GM Jim Hall bumped up to VP of business development.

Interesting.. promoting a GM with no sales background to be VP of business development.

 

Good news for WDJT if they go outside of the station and company to pick a new GM. They could use some leadership.

Damn. How he's going to commute from his crib in Milwaukee, to 26 N. Halsted on a daily basis? That's some gas money he'll be shelling out every week, but I don't he's complaining too much. Glad that he's moving up in the Weigel fold.

There's always Amtrak or Metra (from Kenosha) too.

 

Sounds like quite the promotion.

Yeah, especially since the train station is literally a few blocks from 26 North.
