Quote: Gordon Wittenmyer, Chicago Cubs beat writer for Sun-Times since 2007, is leaving to join NBC Sports Chicago. Starting in early March, he’ll become the new Cubs Insider for the regional sports network. With a week to go before the start of spring training, the Sun-Times posted an opening Friday for Wittenmyer’s position. He’s expected to continue as a contributor to Entercom sports/talk WSCR 670-AM. https://www.robertfeder.com/2020/02/17/ ... hall-fame/ |

Any meaningful story/etc they will funnel to the Marquee reporter first. |

They will get the meaningless stories first along with the softball interviews that Parkins and Bernstein once received. |

Wittenmyer always sounds like he either just woke up or he's wasted. Actually, when I hear him, the first thing I think of is that one crazy Bernie Kosar interview. Wittenmyer pauses oddly, too. I heard Mully interviewing him once and I wanted to reach through the radio and strangle them both. |
