Chicago News, Sports, Weather, and Culture
Chicago is the third largest city in the United States and is home to nearly 3 million people. It’s known as a “melting pot” and a “city in a garden.” The city is home to a diverse population and a vibrant sports culture. Sporting News has named Chicago the “Best Sports City” three times. And since 2012, Chicago has ranked high on the TSE International Ranking of Sport Cities. The city was also home to the first ever Heisman Trophy winner, Jay Berwanger.
In addition to sports, Chicago is known for its food, climate and history. A recent report reported that street racers had resurfaced in the southwest side of Chicago early on Sunday morning. WGN Radio 720 reports on local news, sports, weather, business, and traffic. The station is also home to WGN-TV, Chicago’s only major commercial television station.
WGN TV is the official news network for Chicago, providing local news, weather, sports, entertainment, and more. During a recent Chicago shooting, a security guard at a WGN-TV station was killed. In addition to WGN-TV, Chicago news is also available on FOX 32, a local news network that covers the city and Northwest Indiana.
Chicago’s own TV station, WGN-TV, has a dedicated news and sports channel, which airs daytime Chicago news. WGN-TV+ is also available on smart TV platforms. A radio station, WGN-720, has been broadcasting since 1978. It began as a Chicago weather station and TV superstation. At 7pm, WGN-TV airs the Pritzker-Bailey Illinois gubernatorial debate.
