Good content ideas are always at a premium. WGN Radio and Crain’s Chicago Business are expanding their content integration with a live microphone inside the Crain’s Chicago newsroom, beginning Monday, May 6. Monday through Friday, “The WGN Radio Crain’s Chicago Business Desk” will feature Crain’s reporters twice daily on WGN Radio during newscasts at 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. Listeners will also hear the top business news of the day weekdays at 12:50 p.m. during the station’s “Wintrust Business Lunch” program.
Of the partnership, WGN Radio Station Manager & VP of Content Todd Manley said, “Who better to further solidify our commitment to conversations about Chicago commerce than the expert journalists at Crain’s?”
Jim Kirk, Publisher and Executive Editor of Crain’s, said, “We’re very happy to expand our relationship with WGN. The station’s unique relationship with its listeners is a natural for Crain’s as we continue to look for ways to grow our journalism beyond our traditional platforms.”
