<\/a> Steve Cochran<\/p><\/div>\n

After seven months as morning personality on WGN AM 720,<\/a> Steve Cochran is ready for his close-up.<\/p>\n

Starting Tuesday, the Tribune Broadcasting news\/talk station will add a live video stream of Cochran\u2019s show to its website at wgnradio.com. <\/a>From 5 to 9 a.m. weekdays, multiple cameras in WGN\u2019s showcase studio will allow listeners to see what they\u2019re hearing in real time.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe think it\u2019s a great way to get to know all the players,\u201d said Todd Manley, vice president of creative content at WGN. \u201cIt becomes a 360 experience now.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to showing Cochran behind the microphone, other cameras will pick up his in-studio guests and supporting cast, including news anchor Andrea Darlas, sports anchor Dave Eanet, business reporter Orion Samuelson and producers Anne Johnsos and Kevin Powell.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not a television show; its a peek behind the curtain \u2014 a way to see how everybody collaborates,\u201d Manley said of the addition. \u201cThere are so many visual cues and things like that. It just makes it a different way to experience Cochran.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the latest Nielsen Audio survey, WGN ranks third in mornings with a 5.1 percent share and cumulative weekly audience of 317,900.<\/p>\n

Later in April, Tribune Broadcasting plans to video stream\u00a0WGWG LP 87.7,\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0the new sports\/talk station known as The Game 87.7 FM. It will start with the midday show hosted by David Kaplan and David Haugh, which airs from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. weekdays.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
