: i have seen a lot of people giggling with delight that lise dominique is "back" and doing afternoon/evening news/traffic/weather on 'LS. personally i have no idae who she is or who she "used to be" but every time i have heard her, she's fumbling through script, screwing up times, bumbling over sponsor reads, and overall sounding like she belongs on the overnight weekend shift at WBBM at MOST. what gives?

Hi 'yuck'. Thank you for your feedback on my stint so far at 'LS. I did leave radio in 1995 after 15 years of being a morning drive co-host and news anchor . One of the reasons was the obvious creative blight that I felt would naturally ensue post-consolidation. I truly believe that the turnaround is now slowly underway.

Since the end of 2008, I have done an incredible amount of morning drive news fill-in on 100.3, co-hosted on WGN-AM & WIND-AM and am now evening news anchor 3x a week on WLS-AM.

The last time I worked in that hard news format was during my 1992-93 stint at WLS-AM. Going back, granted, I had to find my pace at first. Also, in the past five weeks I have also spent , unexpectedly , my days in the dentist, periodontist and oral surgeon's chair and in the chair in front of the WLS mike by night. ( I don't recommend the combo, by the way!) I am getting back in the saddle and hope that you will give me another chance . I know there have been some pretty sharp and well-written and delivered reports in there, too but I am always open to improvement.

Again, thank you for your input and feel free to check out my website. There are some pretty funny pieces of sound from the 'wayback machine' .

Best, Lise Dominique
