CHICAGO SUN-TIMES columnist JI SUK YI is joining TRIBUNE MEDIA News-Talk WGN-A/CHICAGO as a regular contributor to STEVE COCHRAN's morning show. YI's weekly SUN-TIMES restaurant column and video "THE GRID: NEIGHBORHOOD EATS" will continue in the paper and will be a recurring segment on WEDNESDAYS 9:10a (CT) on COCHRAN's show.
“JI has become one of CHICAGO’s most compelling cultural storytellers,” said Station Manager/VP of Content TODD MANLEY. “Her fresh voice adds a whole new dimension to STEVE’s show.”
“I’m excited to take part and enhance a fun and clever daily conversation at a legacy station that jump starts the day in a meaningful way for listeners…hearing directly from them and connecting is the best part!” said YI, who served as co-host and contributor on ABC O&O WLS-TV (ABC 7)/CHICAGO's "WINDY CITY LIVE" for seven seasons before joining the SUN-TIMES.
“JI’s work at the SUN-TIMES has been stellar, and we’re excited about collaborating with WGN and her on “The Grid: Neighborhood Eats,” added SUN-TIMES Editor-in-Chief CHRIS FUSCO.
