Mark Giangreco
I caught up with Mark Giangreco just as he was heading home Sunday from Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, to ask the obvious question: What_ does_ a sportscaster do when there’s no sports going on? For Chicago’s No. 1 sports anchor, the answer is to play your greatest hits. Continue reading →SPONSORED CONTENT

Terrell Brown (Photo: ABC 7 Chicago) Robservations on the media beat: The world changed dramatically this week — and so did television. As it has few times in our lives, TV suddenly became the source of essential information to millions of viewers hunkered down at home and desperate to make sense of the bewildering and rapidly developing coronavirus story. At the outset of the crisis, PERRY SOOK, chairman and CEO of Nexstar Media Group (parent company of “Chicago’s Very Own” WGN-Channel 9), told investors:“If
you’re quarantined in your home and one of the few things you can do is watch television, I think advertisers see the benefit in that.” As inartfully as he phrased it, Sook may have been on to something. News ratings are up substantially, according to preliminary reports, even as newsrooms across the country make adjustments on the fly and encourage employees to work from home. News media across all platforms will take on an even more vital role providing accurate information and a semblance of reassurance in the days and weeks ahead. Continuereading →

Prudential Plaza
Robservations on the media beat: The coronavirus story became personal for multiple media organizations Wednesday after an unidentified employee of the Prudential Buildingtested positive
for COVID-19. The two-tower downtown complex houses Tribune Publishing (including the Chicago Tribune), Hubbard Radio Chicago and Entercom Chicago, all of which encouraged employees to work from home if possible. Elsewhere a growing number of Chicago area journalists also began working remotely, including much of the staff of Crain’s Chicago Business. As a precautionary test on Thursday, virtually the entire editorial department of the Sun-Times will remain off site too. “Let’s be clear: This is a trial run,” the Sun-Times wrote in aneditorial.
“We have seen no evidence of COVID-19 in our newsroom or in the places we send reporters.” Continue reading → ‘MATH IN MUSIC’ SERIES ADDS UP FOR WFMT posted on March 11, 2020at 6:00 am
Dr. Eugenia Cheng
This Saturday — March 14 — is known internationally as “Pi Day,” when the date’s numerical value of 3.14 matches the Greek letter Pi, symbolizing the first three digits of the mathematical constant. What better day to introduce a series on the relationship between math and music? “Math in Music” will launch online then as an 11-episode digital series from WFMT 98.7-FM, the Window to the World Communications classical music station.

WCKG 1530 AM
Robservations on the media beat: WCKG 1530-AM, the DuPage Radio sports/talk station that’s been calling itself “Fox Sports Radio,” this week is being rebranded as “Sportsbook Radio.” The move capitalizes on the legalization of sports wagering at casinos in Illinois. No word yet on any new programming at the west suburban Elmhurst station or on a replacement for RICH EISEN, whose syndicated midday show will be dropped by Premiere Networks, as of April 7. “We’re planning to develop long-form and short-form ‘Sportsbook Radio’ content on WCKG, with local casino and media partners to be announced,” said station manager MATT DUBIEL. “That work is underway, but rather than have sports personalities cover gambling, we’d prefer to have gambling experts on air. Ultimately, we will see our studio inside a Chicago-area sportsbook to get as close to the action as possible.” Continue reading → ROBSERVATIONS: COLLEGE OF DUPAGE EVACUATION PLUNGES WDCB INTO DEADAIR

College of DuPage Student Resource Center Robservations on the media beat:Steve Darnall
An emergency evacuation on the College of DuPage’s Glen Ellyn campus knocked public radio station WDCB 90.9-FM off the air for about 35 minutes Saturday afternoon. Listeners to “Those Were the Days” were hearing the rebroadcast of a 1945 speech by President FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT when host STEVE DARNALL and his crew were forced to vacate their studio in the west suburban college’s Student Resource Center. Station manager DAN BINDERT called the evacuation “a precautionary measure ultimately resolved without incident,” adding: “Normally in emergency situations our crew has a little more time to line up backup programming or set up an alternate form of remote broadcasting, but the nature of this particular safety event was different. The safety of Steve and the entire crew was our most important concern. We thank our audience for their patience and understanding.” WDCB came back on just in time for Darnall and Bindert to explain what happened and sign off the show. “We’ll see about putting the missing pieces in place when we archive our show on Tuesday,” Darnall tweeted.

As a pioneering rock and roll disc jockey in the 1960s and for decades later as a multifaceted talk show host, Clark Weber entertained generations of Chicago radio listeners with impeccable style, class and professionalism. Beloved by fans as “Mother Weber’s Oldest Son,” the legendary broadcaster, program director, advertising executive and industry elder statesman died of cancer Saturday in Evanston. He was 89.

Wednesday with a sunny outlook and a smile. He released a photo of himself on social media with a message from BILL SNYDER, weather producer for Nexstar Media Group WGN-Channel 9: “Happy to report that our very own Tom Skilling is doing well, and resting following successful gastric bypass surgery earlier today. The doctor had to repair a small hernia that he found when they went in, leading to a longer than normal procedure. But Tom is resting and in good spirits!” Skilling, 68, who underwent the operation to lose weight, told WGN: “Thank you for all the wishes. It got me through this procedure. It’s the first step but what a step! I can’t wait to tell you about it as the process continues.” Continue reading → ROBSERVATIONS: RATINGS DELIVER ‘GRATIFYING’ VICTORY TO UNIVISIONCHICAGO’S WOJO

A closer look at the latest Nielsen Audio survey shows Univision Chicago’s flagship WOJO 105.1-FMwith
a big win in two key adult demographics. The regional Mexican music station known as _“La Que Buena 105.1”_ finished first in both 25-to-54 and 18-to-49 demos. (Nielsen guidelines prohibit publishing specific demographic shares.) “WOJO enjoys a very long heritage of leadership in the Spanish-language space, but it is especially gratifying when the station is at the very top of the entire marketplace among listeners in the key demographics most valued by advertisers,” said DOUG LEVY, president and general manager of Univision Chicago. “The current ratings performance is proof positive that Chicago’s Hispanic consumer segment is not only large but also incredibly engaged with their favorite radio station — WOJO. I’m very proud of our team of programmers and personalities who make this station one of the very best in the industry.” Continue reading → FOUR ABC 7 EMPLOYEES SIDELINED BY CORONAVIRUS CONCERNS posted on March 3, 2020at 9:00 pm

Four employees of WLS-Channel 7 were kept away from work Tuesday out of concern they may have been exposed to the coronavirus, officials of the ABC-owned station confirmed. The action was taken “out of an abundance of caution,” the station said, after an ABC 7 reporter and photographer interviewed a food service worker Monday at Northwest Community Hospital in Arlington Heights where a coronavirus patient was being treated.
