Thanks so much to Robert Feder for mentioning my Dave Plier interview in his column this morning. He writes...
Dave Plier, the Chicago media man of many hats, rates the profile treatment from Rick Kaempfer in the May edition of Illinois Entertainer. (Here is the link.) Plier, a retail marketing executive by day, tells how he came to be a regular weekend and fill-in host at Nexstar Media news/talk WGN 720-AM and board chair of Chicago’s Museum of Broadcast Communications. “The museum is on the way back,” Plier tells Kaempfer, adding: “We have an inaugural award ‘The Bob Newhart Award For Excellence in Television’ we will launch this fall with Bob. We have a Radio Hall of Fame event this July where we will celebrate Top 40 Radio personalities from the ’60s and ’70s.”
