Heather Cherone WTTW

Who is Heather Cherone? Heather is a famous journalist working at WTTW as a reporter. She joined the regular Mincing Rascals podcast crew in September 2019. She’s been the political reporter for WTTW since April 2020. Before that, she was the managing editor and City Hall reporter for The Daily Line, a subscription newsletter on Chicago and Illinois politics. She has also worked at four daily newspapers and internet startup DNAinfo.

She went right to the Tribune where they were planning to cover the suburbs in a different way, and she was part of that effort. Heather covered Downers Grove and Hinsdale and all sorts of different suburbs for them. The Tribune signed on with a firm called Journatic that outsourced that coverage, and so she was let go.

At the time she was also freelancing and working as an adjunct professor of journalism at DePaul University. So Heather thought, well, maybe she wouldn’t do journalism anymore; maybe she would just teach journalism. But right around then, DNAinfo launched and she ended up there. It lasted longer than expected, from 2012 until it imploded in 2017. Then she freelanced and ended up at the Daily Line for a couple of years. Then to WTTW.
