Yeah.. Lise Dominique will tip the scales.
Not.
Charlie and Rob would be good steals though.
: •CBS Radio could flip WCFS-FM (105.9), its underperforming adult-contemporary Fresh FM station, to a simulcast of all-news WBBM-AM (780) any day now. Nothing is official
yet, but insiders at Newsradio 780 say plans are under way for the move as a preemptive maneuver by the top-rated and top-billing station in the market. All that awaits is
approval from New York. It presumably would blunt the expected switch of modern rock WKQX-FM (101.1) to a news format under the new ownership of Randy Michaels’ Merlin
Media. Incoming Q101 news chief Andy Friedman is said to be busy assembling a staff of Chicago radio news voices, including Charlie Meyerson, Rob Hart and Lise Dominique.
