For years @wbez has been producing gripping and informative podcasts that invite listeners to form a deeper connection with this city. We’ll all be worse off without them.

Sun-Times Guild leadership is disturbed by the layoffs of nine of our We Make WBEZ + Vocalo siblings and five non-union colleagues at the Sun-Times and WBEZ.

We are demanding financial transparency from the Chicago Public Media board and management about the future of the organization.
