CHICAGO,
ILLINOIS is the country’s 3rd largest ADI Market ranking behind only
New York
and Los Angeles. The city is rich is sports history playing
host to the Chicago Cubs and White Sox in baseball, the Bulls in
basketball, the Bears in the NFL and the Blackhawks in NHL. From
a media perspective, all four networks (ABC, NBC, CBS and FOX) own and
operate Chicago TV stations. Both The Oprah Winfrey Show and the
Jerry Springer Show call Chicago their home. Hillary Rodham Clinton, Walt Disney, Harrison Ford, John Cusack, John Mahoney, Dorothy Hamill, Quincy Jones, Pat Sajak, Robin Williams and Benny Goodman all were born in Chicago.
