Anticipated changes at WGN 720 AM come not long after de
Castro announced he’d reunite with Tribune Co.’s president of local
broadcasting Larry Wert in May. The duo ruled Chicago ’s radio roost back in their days at
the Loop WLUP-97.9. WGN-AM personalities Garry Meier and Jonathan Brandmeier,
and Steve Dahl are Loop alums as well.
Could Dahl be in the mix for the station’s new lineup?

“No one has made me an offer I can’t refuse, and I’m
presently very content growing my podcast network every day,” Dahl told the
Sun-Times via email.
De Castro recently said the AM station was in need of
change: “We need to be the station that’s newsbreaking. We are live, local
24/7. No more taped shows. We will be doing what Chicagoans are asking and
conversing about and telling us about. That will be the content of the station.”
