Cutbacks Hit Hubbard Radio Chicago
It’s an unfortunate annual scenario that happens to coincide with the holiday season, but many employers do indeed adjust budgets — and downsize employees — around this time of year. Such is the case at Hubbard Radio Chicago, where at least four employees — two of them long-term — have been adversely affected and are available now: 1) Paul Webber — APD of Classic Rock WDRV/WWDV (97.1 The Drive) and WSHE, who also doubled as Hubbard Radio Chicago’s Direct Marketing Manager. Webber joined the company in 1993, working for WTMX (101.9 The Mix) when it was still owned by Bonneville. 2) John Siuntres, Production Director for WSHE. Joined the company as Production Coordinator in 2007 and has also worked his production magic for WTMX and WDRV. 3) Ryan Williams, Promotions Assistant for WDRV. He was hired in February of this year after a two-year stint with CBS Radio Chicago. 4) Bianca Cordova, Digital Media Graphic Designer who joined Hubbard Chicago in June of this year.
