  3. Local media perform at Newsapalooza

    Local media personalities were the stars of the show for Newsapalooza, a benefit held Nov. 10 at Park West. More than 500 guests attended this third annual variety show that featured Grammy winner and Chicago native Richard Marx, who served as the musical director. Founded by singer-songwriter Marx and Roe Conn (WLS radio co-host of "Roe & Roeper"), the event raised money for Clearbrook, one of Illinois' largest providers of services for people with developmental difficulties.

  5. Crafting gun laws without the likes of …

    "This is a serious time," said the fundamentally unserious former Illinois Congressman Joe Walsh during an interview on WTTW-Ch. 11's "Chicago Tonight" program last week. "My side — the side that believes in freedom and limited government; the Republican Party — doesn't sufficiently see that we're at war. Thomas Jefferson ... not that long ago ... said that the tree of liberty may need to be fertilized with the blood of patriots and tyrants."

  7. Big-top operetta that time forgot will receive its Chicago premiere

    As the young daughter of an internationally celebrated composer, Yvonne Kalman delighted in eavesdropping on conversations her father, Emmerich Kalman, had with other famed European emigres as they gathered around plates of freshly prepared Hungarian delicacies in the kitchen of the Kalmans' New York home, before the platters of food were brought out to the other party guests.

  11. The 'Check, Please!' effect

    Popular WTTW-Ch. 11 restaurant show "Check, Please!" is among the most successful locally produced series in Chicago television and an oasis of public television reasonableness in an otherwise frenetic restaurant scene. The series begins its 12th season next month. In the meantime, it will be reruns up the wazoo. Once a season is finished, its episodes are replayed Friday nights (the show's traditional time slot), then again Saturday and Sunday afternoons. It's rerun often, said V.J. McAleer, WTTW's vice president of production, for the obvious reason that it is among the highest-rated shows on WTTW, occasionally <em>the</em> highest rated, with 150,000 weekly viewers. Somehow, though, if you have a DVR set for "Check, Please!" three airings a week seems wrong.

  23. Hit show 'Wild Chicago' may be heading to DVD

    In January 1989, entertainer Ben Hollis and WTTW-Ch. 11 producer Jon Davies created a television show that they called "Wild Chicago." The reason they did this, said Hollis at the time, "was because there was nothing like it on TV."
