Brand Spanking:
CBS Radio's WUSN/Chicago has rolled out a new logo along with the positioner "Chicago's Hottest Country" as "US99.5" becomes simply "US99." The move follows last week's exit of morning hosts Lisa Dent and Ramblin' Ray Stevens, and evening host Joel "Jax" Lisinski (CAT 8/3). "It's important that we reflect today's country listener in everything we do," VP/Programming Jeff Kapugi says in a statement. "The artists, music and concerts are hot and now so is US99 'Chicago's Hottest Country.'" More changes are expected soon. Listen here.
