WGN Radio Shuffles Deck



WGN made a few moves while I was out of town last week.

They jettisoned noon show host Carol Roth and evening host Turi Ryder, expanded David Kaplan's role (making him 7-Midnight weeknights), and brought back Steve Cochran (for now, in a fill-in role).

They also brought back Todd Manley as their creative services director. (Note: the photo at the link is NOT Todd Manley. Not sure where Radio Online got that pic)

I previously interviewed several of those people at Chicago Radio Spotlight (Kap, Steve Cochran, and Todd Manley). All of them were Tribune/WGN employees when I interviewed them for the first time, and now they are back.
