Vor Broker Named WLS City Hall Reporter
• Cumulus Chicago promotes from within, appointing Mallory Vor Broker as the new City Hall Reporter for 890 WLS-AM, covering the goings-on at Chicago City Hall and the political beat. She succeeds the legendary Bill Cameron, who retired August 20 after a momentous 51-year career.
Vor Broker (left) has been a member of the Cumulus Chicago family for the past decade, the past two and a half years as Executive Producer of The John Howell Show. She previously served as producer for Steve Dahl, Roe Conn and Lauren Cohn. Before joining Cumulus, Vor Broker was an assistant producer for CBS Radio.
Stephanie Tichenor, PD of 890 WLS-AM, said, “As our new City Hall Reporter, Mallory will tell the latest local news stories that matter to Chicago. She brings a fresh perspective and deep experience as a storyteller to this integral role. We look forward to continuing WLS’ superb coverage of City Hall and welcome Mallory to the 890 News Team.”
WLS News Director Nick Gale 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’m thrilled to begin my new role as City Hall Reporter for WLS-AM 890. It’s a great opportunity to cover the dynamic political landscape in Chicago and Illinois after years of producing high-profile shows. I look forward to continuing to bring high-quality, thoughtful reporting to WLS-AM 890.”
