To me, it feels like Pig Vomit is trying to turn the station into a version of WLS and WIND, too. Perhaps shying away from the reserved, laid-back nature WGN-AM has been bringing and going for more in-your-face. I'm all for increasing the "personality" factor, but the direction he's going isn't making me feel warm and fuzzy at this time.

: The shuffle at WGN puzzles me. A friend points out they're second in ad revenue billing behind WBBM, and ahead of WLS and WIND -- which begs the question, why would they want to sound *more* like those two stations?
