	WBEZ change don't come EZ: Chicago Public Radio says dropping music Chicago Sun-Times - Find Articles
		Chicago Sun-Times, Jul 10, 2006 by mike thomas
		In early April, management announced that Chicago Public Radio -- which includes WBEZ and its suburban satellites WBEW-FM (89.5) in Chesterton and WBEQ-FM (90.7) in Morris -- would drop music programming altogether, instead of making the satellites music-only spin-offs as originally planned.
		In Chicago, where musical roots (of jazz and blues, in particular) run deep, the decision to drop every music block on the schedule seems especially egregious.
