Fucking WMAQ went all-news 30 years ago this week. Never forget.

Nice old school reference, GJ.

My dad had the WMAQ bumper sticker on his car back in the day.

If I remember correctly, if your car was spotted on the expressway with the sticker, they would read your license plate over the air and you had an hour to call in and win the prize?

The balcks and the whites can't agree about the Jews but they all are appearing on the 6 o'clock news... this is the world every 22 seconds, it's everything you need to know, don't waste your time on the other news stations, they all talk talk talk too slow. The schools are out of money, they're closing the express lanes, the neighbors near O'Hare are shooting down the airplanes. It's the what and the where without the how or the why, we'd love to tell you more but we haven't got the time.
