  The WGN morning crew is directed to be utterly less stiff and 
spontaneous than the folks at the major outlets. In fact, the total 
WGN-TV news crew is something less than stiff. The 5 PM newscast does 
most of the show from the newsroom with roaming handheld cameras (I 
don't know how the prompters are mounted).  Forget wearing jeans to sit 
behind a desk with them.

Also, do a Google or Youtube search for weekend anchors Bob 
Jordan/Jackie Bange. They have a 2 minute long school yard dance which 
would make any school girl giggle. They repeated it on the last Jerry 
Lewis Telethon when someone called in asking for it. Great stuff...
