Cumulus has appointed Mallory Vor Broker as reporter for 890 WLS-AM. She will cover Chicago City Hall and the political beat for 890 WLS-AM, filling the role vacated by Bill Cameron, who retired on August 20th after a momentous 51-year career.

Vor Broker joins the 890 News Team from The John Howell Show on 890 WLS-AM, where she was Executive Producer for the past two and a half years. She also served as a producer for Steve Dahl, Roe Conn and Lauren Cohn during her nearly 10 years as a producer for Cumulus Chicago. Before joining Cumulus, she was an assistant producer for CBS Radio. Vor Broker holds a B.A. degree in English Creative Writing from Ohio University and a Master's degree in Journalism from Roosevelt University.

"As our new City Hall Reporter, Mallory will tell the latest local news stories that matter to Chicago," said Stephanie Tichenor, Program Director, 890 WLS-AM. "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."

"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," said Nick Gale, News Director, 890 WLS-AM. "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."

"I am thrilled to begin my new role as City Hall Reporter for WLS-AM 890," said Vor Broker. "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."
