I remember watching WGN News from Des Moines, IA on what used to be WGN America. And I can't forget the memories of watching the Illinois Lottery drawings. I just wish they bring it back, that way everyone beyond the Chicagoland region could watch WGN again
The 615 theme was the best ever for the history of WGN because the set was changed, but not the graphics in the middle of 2007. Which meant the strong theme could be applied no matter what was on the screen; no matter what size it was big or small. Small being their present streaming platform WGN News Now. This theme is 15 years old, it's sounds more like 4 years instead!
I do hope that Nexstar keeps the custom themes made specifically for the stations I mean, Nexstar already axed the custom theme of one of their own pre-Tribune stations *cough* KRON 4 *cough* but I hope they keep the Tribune themes

I live in Birmingham, Alabama watching Chicago News outside the Chicago Area Superstation Feed when We had Bright House Networks, Direct TV.

Nexstar Media Group, Inc. is the parent company of WGN-TV, Channel 9, Chicago, and WPIX-TV, Channel 11, New York City. 👌

Difference is KRON wasn't doing too great were WGN has been near the top of the ratings for years, perhaps a little more leverage for the ol number 9
Meanwhile at Philly 57, let's hope that KYW is still making their 10pm newscasts...
Also KRON was not owned by Tribune
I believe they still use it, but they don't play the music over their logo.

WGN News always had some of the best music. I used to watch Chicago news, and I live in Nashville, TN. Just mire interesting as far as the staff.
The CW is finally back where it belongs in Chicago.
The anchors that are not in this video are the morning news team.
For example, Larry, Robin, Paul, Valerie, Erin, Pat, Dean, Ana
Morning midday evening nine and ten on WGN tv
Make it another 615 music chicago theme.
What about the theme used prior to it? (WGN News (Non-Stop Music))
Not to Mention John Hegner's Chicago's Very Own from 1993 through 1997.
@@DeAngeloStevens That package is already on TVPMM Vault (aka Museum of Television Production Music).
Since November 1, 2007.
