Chicago’s progressive talk radio station, WCPT AM/FM owned by the Newsweb Corporation (also owns WDEK 92.5) found Ben Franklin of Northern Illinois on the internet and called them in to do a special project that required doing some sensitive storm drain sewer pipe repair. They had put off doing the repair for some time because of the possible down time at the radio station, something that could not happen.
