WGN/Chicago has partnered with new Windy City-focused blog website ChicagoNow.com for a weekly radio show. The new program will be hosted by Chicago radio veteran Bill Leff and feature a rotating cast of local bloggers from the more than 126 contributors to the local news website. “WGN wanted to create a boundary-free radio celebration of Chicago life,” says PD Kevin Metheny. “ChicagoNow is a collection of fascinating people who can’t stop themselves from constantly telling Chicago’s story as they see it in a dynamic, refreshing, and sometimes disturbing way. This will be a crazy collision of experiences and perspectives.” The program will air Saturdays from 9am-1pm on the Tribune News/Talker beginning November 14th, with a weekly podcast of ChicagoNow Radio also available at www.wgnradio.com.
