New this season on WGN-TV – have your cake and eat it too!  When a Chicago Cubs or Chicago White Sox broadcast airs at the start time of 9pm, WGN News will present a special 30-minute newscast that will be carried live on CLTV as well as stream live on WGNtv.com.  Once the games end around midnight, a half-hour newscast will air live, as per past post-baseball late night newscasts.

“We’re very excited about giving our viewers the best of both worlds – your News at Nine AND Cubs and Sox baseball,” commented VP/GM of WGN-TV & CLTV Marty Wilke. “With our 30-minute newscasts right at 9pm on CLTV and streaming live on the web, we’re making sure to give our viewers what they want, when they want it.”
