Stephanie Tichenor has exited as Program Director of Cumulus Media Conservative Talk 890 WLS Chicago after an over seven year run in the position.

Tichenor joined WLS in March 2019 following a decade at 720 WGN Chicago where she rose from a part-time producer to executive producer to Assistant Program Director and Operations Manager.

Tichenor shared on LinkedIn, “Radio is changing here in Chicago and across the country. I was laid off yesterday. I worked with the Cumulus Media as Program Director and Director of Social Media for over 7 years. I worked with a wonderful team of professionals and I will cherish the friendships I have made. I’m grateful for my family and friends who support me, love me, and make me laugh every day. What’s next? I’m not sure. I am anxious. I am sad. Mostly I am hopeful.”
