from Feder:

Chicago radio sportscaster Connor McKnight is about to sign on with Cumulus Media news/talk WLS AM 890 as host of pre-game and post-game shows for Chicago White Sox baseball. The deal will include appearances on all four of the company’s stations here. “Connor is our guy,” said Peter Bowen, vice president and Chicago market manager of Cumulus Media. “He will play a big role in the rebuild of our legendary property WLS 890 with the White Sox, as well as be our live and local sports insider across the cluster on WKQX, WLUP and WLS FM.” McKnight currently reports sports for Roe Conn’s weekday afternoon show and co-hosts “The Beat” Saturday afternoons on Tribune Media news/talk WGN AM 720. He joined Tribune Media in 2014 as host on its short-lived FM sports station, The Game, after five years at CBS Radio sports/talk WSCR AM 670. A graduate of the University of Wisconsin at Madison, McKnight was working as a Comcast SportsNet intern when he won The Score’s first “American Idol”-inspired talent search in 2009.

So the White Sox have been reduced to "Other Chicago Sports Media" seems fitting.

CH, would you explain to me your high level of distaste for McDoink? I do enjoy it.

Apparently Chris Rongey wasn't condescending enough.

I just started the podcast and it feels like something made by high school students. every time mcdoink says a word with a "p" he almost blows my speakers.

Hey, plosive filters cost money. Cumulus is trying to run radio like a business here.
