    JOE DONLON Anchor (Weekday) 21-Year News Veteran From WGN-TV (Chicago) Also Worked in Oregon, Arizona, and Texas “It’s a dream to get the call to work for a legendary station I grew up watching (WGN)... Now, I’ll get to launch another ambitious project across the country on WGN America.” Joe Donlon didn’t have to travel far to join the team at News Nation. He was already in the building. In early 2018, the St. Louis native returned to his Midwest roots to anchor the evening news at “Chicago’s Very Own” WGN-TV. Donlon came to Chicago after 21 years as the main anchor at KGW-TV (NBC) in Portland, Oregon. Before that, he spent 10 years at KVOA-TV (NBC) in Tucson. He started his career at KZTV (CBS) in Corpus Christi, Texas. His reporting has taken him as far away as Kuwait, just days after the end of Operation Desert Storm. There have been conventions, impeachments, Olympics, National Championship football and basketball games, and more. He likes to say he has had an incredibly fortunate front row seat to a lot of history. Donlon called it a “dream” to get the call to work for a legendary station he grew up watching. “It has been an honor to share the news set with some of the iconic personalities who introduced the nation to WGN as a superstation,” Joe says. "Now, I’ll get to follow in their footsteps as we launch another ambitious project across the country on WGN America." Donlon and his wife, Kathleen, have three grown children who are all living in Chicago.
