  • JOE DONLON Anchor (Weekday)
    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.

    Ethical Presence TM Copyright 2018 Richard Thomas Richard Thomas 1000 E. 53rd St. Unit 405 Chicago, Illinois 60615 Phone: 312-285-5415 1 Email: [email protected] It is not enough to understand mere rules of professional conduct. It is necessary to have the life skills to comply with them. I worked as a litigator at the Illinois Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission. When I was there, I noticed that many lawyers didn’t need to be disciplined. They needed to be educated about the vast potential of their own humanity. I subsequently saw that was true for lawyers was true for business professionals and academics --- and any other person who works in a professional setting. Creativity, empathy, self-expression, critical thinking, conscience and other qualities falsely identified with talent are simply aspects of being human. They require no special talent. They can be accessed. They can be developed to greater depths. They can be practiced in order to strengthen facility in their application to the events and purposes of work and life. The Rules of Professional Responsibility for Attorneys, and any formal or informal code of conduct for any profession, address these fundamental aspects of personal character: • Competence • Diligence • Communication • Honesty (Don’t lie) • Honesty (Don’t steal) • Civility These aspects of character are also necessities of creativity. Picasso became more than competent at drafting and naturalistic painting before he innovated new forms. Anyone who has ever seriously practiced writing, music, acting or any other creative art knows how important diligent and sustained work is to achieving creative excellence.
