Audacy appoints Emmy-nominated journalist Glenn Marshall as the new evening anchor and reporter for WBBM (Newsradio 780 AM/105.9 FM) in Chicago. “Glenn’s combination of experience, authenticity and professionalism will immediately strengthen our afternoon reporting and bring a recognizable, trusted voice to our evening anchoring,” said Craig Schwalb, Brand Manager, WBBM Newsradio. “We’re excited to welcome Glenn and see the impact he will have on our newsroom and the Chicago audience.”

Marshall, a Chicago native, said the role fulfills a childhood dream. “Chicago made me. I listened to WBBM Newsradio as a kid and dreamed of one day being part of the voices that inform this city,” he said. “Now I get to continue telling the stories that matter to the neighborhoods I know and love. I am proud to join the team and shine a light on the issues and victories that shape our communities every day.”

Marshall began his career at NBC Chicago, rising from intern to news associate before moving into reporting roles across the country. His experience includes WICS-TV in Springfield, NBC Boston and NECN, and several positions at Atlanta’s CBS46. Most recently, he returned home to report for WGN-TV, covering breaking news and issues affecting Chicago’s South and West Sides.

He remains active in the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ), mentoring young journalists and championing community-driven storytelling.
