At this point, I’m not sure how newsworthy this is, but the program schedule listed on WGNRadio.com (which includes the “over the air” schedule for shows on WGN 720 AM as well as any additional online-only shows) no longer includes Mike McConnell’s live stream show.
Last week following a Robert Feder report (which I recapped on this blog) that McConnell’s agent had accepted an early settlement from his remaining two-year WGN contract, McConnell the next day on his Facebook wrote that he would soon return, at least with a podcast. McConnell’s been posting an update each weekday on his Facebook since doing his last live online-show on Oct. 3.
Until Feder follows-up with a report with absolute 100% confirmation that McConnell is gone or until McConnell says something more definitive on his Facebook page, we probably won’t know for sure what his status is at WGN.
