Nick Gale, News Director, 890 WLS-AM, commented: “While Bill Cameron has left some big shoes to fill, Mallory joins the team equipped with the knowledge of how Chicago-style politics work and a Rolodex to compliment that. We welcome Mallory to the team, knowing she is well prepared to keep WLS listeners informed on what’s happening at the hall as well as down in Springfield.”
Vor Broker remarked: “I am thrilled to begin my new role as City Hall Reporter for WLS-AM 890.
