Dan Fabian was full of ideas. They would pour out of him at such a rate that he would walk around the offices of WGN Radio with a yellow legal pad and pen to jot them all down. “He would be walking in the hallways and you could walk past him and say, “Good morning, Dan,” and he wouldn’t respond, not because he was being rude but because he was coming up with” ideas, said Dave Eanet, sports director at WGN Radio. Mr. Fabian’s innovations shaped the station’s sound in a career that spanned 30 years, working his way up at the station to eventually become vice president and general manager. Mr. Fabian died Friday. He was 81. Now, Eanet is among the scores of WGN colleagues reflecting on Mr. Fabian’s legacy at the station. “I hope that people remember and think about the huge contributions that he made to the radio station,” Eanet said. Mr. Fabian’s career at WGN began in1965, and he worked there until his retirement in 1996. He started as a college intern and held positions in every department, including sales, promotions, marketing and as program director, WGN said. By the time Eanet first met him in 1984 during a job interview Mr. Fabian had already established a reputation as a sharp thinker. “I knew of him, I knew his reputation as being one of the smartest people in the business,” Eanet said, adding that he felt some extra nerves during the interview. “But he was very welcoming, very friendly, and very interested in what I had to say and what I had done at that point. It was a good start.” Mr. Fabian was known as someone who would take chances on people and programming to push the station forward. One of his most important moves was commissioning folksinger and songwriter Steve Goodman to create a Chicago Cubs jingle in 1984. The result was “Go Cubs Go,” an anthem that is still played after victories. In 1985, Mr. Fabian wanted to change the way the station covered Bears games. He shifted from a two-man to a three-man broadcast booth, something that hadn’t been done in Chicago before, Eanet said. Mr. Fabian brought in former Bears linebacker Dick Butkus to join Jim Hart and Wayne Larrivee in the booth. Mr. Fabian also brought popular WGN-AM morning host Spike O’Dell to Chicago. He helped guide the transition from top-rated morning drive-time host Wally Phillips to Bob Collins, who kept the station at the top of the ratings. WGN also credits Mr. Fabian with spearheading “the most successful and memorable marketing campaign in Chicago radio history” with the creation of a cartoon bird who called himself “Chicago” in the 1980s. Mr. Fabian was inducted into the WGN Radio Walk of Fame in 2016. “He was this deep-thinking, awesome guy,” said Chicago sports media mogul David Kaplan, who worked for more than 20 years at WGN starting in the ‘90s. “You could come in and think you had this tremendously difficult question, and he could boil it down. He was very measured.” Kaplan said that although the station had many popular radio hosts, Mr. Fabian is one of the main reasons WGN radio was able to develop a large following in Chicago. “He was one of the key great things that WGN had going for them for a very, very long time,” Kaplan said. “I thought he was brilliant.”Woman, 95, lies on freezing pavement with broken hip for five hours as ambulance chiefs say she 'is not a priority' By TOM MIDLANE Published: 18:10, 30 November 2024 | Updated: 18:10, 30 November 2024 e-mail 4 View comments A 95-year-old woman told onlookers 'I'm going to die here tonight' after being left on the freezing pavement with a broken hip for five hours because ambulance chiefs told her she 'was not a priority'. Winifred Soanes was unable to move due to the pain she was in, after falling over in Christchurch High Street, Dorset, at 2.30pm while out her 92-year-old husband Andrew. Despite multiple concerned members of the public making repeated 999 calls for an ambulance, explaining Winifred was elderly and vulnerable, they were told she 'was not a priority'. Passing Good Samaritans managed to prop her head up with shoe boxes from market stallholders and a pillow from a nearby pub. Staff at Mountain Warehouse provided her with sleeping bags and charity shops gave blankets and hot water bottles to keep Winifred warm while she waited. Others provided coffee and food to help Andrew, who is an army veteran and diabetic and who refused to leave his wife's side. An ambulance eventually arrived at 7.45pm on Monday and took Winifred to hospital where she remains under supervision. To add insult to injury, Andrew developed a chest infection as a result of being out in the cold so long and cannot visit his wife in hospital. Winifred Soanes was forced to wait for five hours for an ambulance in freezing conditions after falling over in Christchurch High Street, Dorset The 95-year-old was watched over by husband Andrew, 92, an army veteran and diabetic (pictured left) with the local community donating supplies to keep her warm A number of concerned onlookers called 999 but were told that Mrs Soanes was 'not a priority' People who helped the couple have slammed the 'broken system'. Jennifer Baylis, who was working in a charity shop, said: 'I can't tell you how upsetting it was, she actually said "I'm going to die here tonight". 'She was in a phenomenal amount of pain and in such a vulnerable position, on a cold floor, totally reliant on complete strangers. She fell at 2.30pm and the ambulance finally showed up at 7.45pm. 'We were all distressed that there was no first responder available, no police officer, literally no one available to help for over five hours. 'You feel so helpless, I was so angry that they were in this position. It shouldn't be happening in this day and age. 'The NHS are fantastic once help is there. We know how hard they work. But something went very very wrong to leave a 95-year-old lady on the pavement of a high street at night.' David Lovell, who saw her fall and was the first to call for an ambulance, said: 'I can't describe how cold it was, and as it got dark, the temperature dropped really quickly. 'She was lying on the cold pavement and we couldn't move her because she was in huge amounts of pain.' The South Western Ambulance Service said handover delays at emergency departments remain one of the force's biggest challenges When others called again to chase up the ambulance, they were given no time frame for how long the wait would be. Winifred was eventually taken to Poole Hospital and is waiting for a specialist operation for her injuries. Andrew said: 'The situation was dire, but it's great to know that when they need to, the community all pull together to help.' A spokesperson for the South Western Ambulance Service, said: 'We are sorry that we were not able to provide a timely response to this patient. 'Any occasion where the care we provide falls below the high standards our patients deserve and rightly expect is unacceptable. 'Handover delays at emergency departments remain one of our biggest challenges. To ensure our ambulances are available to attend the next emergency call within the community, we need to be able to hand patients over within the 15 minute national target. 'We continue to work hard with our partners in the NHS and social care, to do all we can to improve the service that patients receive.'

Cutting in line? American Airlines' new boarding tech might stop you at now over 100 airportsWASHINGTON (AP) — For years, Pat Verhaeghe didn’t think highly of Donald Trump as a leader. Then Verhaeghe began seeing more of Trump’s campaign speeches online and his appearances at sporting events. There was even the former president’s pairing with Bryson DeChambeau as part of the pro golfer’s YouTube channel series to shoot an under-50 round of golf while engaging in chitchat with his partner. “I regret saying this, but a while ago I thought he was an idiot and that he wouldn’t be a good president,” said the 18-year-old first-time voter. “I think he’s a great guy now.” Verhaeghe isn't alone among his friends in suburban Detroit or young men across America. Although much of the electorate shifted right to varying degrees in 2024, young men were one of the groups that swung sharply toward Trump. More than half of men under 30 supported Trump, according to AP VoteCast , a survey of more than 120,000 voters, while Democrat Joe Biden had won a similar share of this group four years earlier. White men under 30 were solidly in Trump’s camp this year — about 6 in 10 voted for Trump — while young Latino men were split between the two candidates. Most Black men under 30 supported Democrat Kamala Harris, but about one-third were behind Trump. Young Latino men’s views of the Democratic Party were much more negative than in 2020, while young Black men’s views of the party didn’t really move. About 6 in 10 Latino men under 30 had a somewhat or very favorable view of the Democrats in 2020, which fell to about 4 in 10 this year. On the other hand, about two-thirds of young Black men had a favorable view of the Democrats this year, which was almost identical to how they saw the party four years ago. “Young Hispanic men, and really young men in general, they want to feel valued," said Rafael Struve, deputy communications director for Bienvenido, a conservative group that focused on reaching young Hispanic voters for Republicans this year. “They're looking for someone who fights for them, who sees their potential and not just their struggles.” Struve cited the attempted assassination of Trump during a July rally in Pennsylvania as one of the catalyzing moments for Trump’s image among many young men. Trump, Struve said, was also able to reach young men more effectively by focusing on nontraditional platforms like podcasts and digital media outlets. “Getting to hear from Trump directly, I think, really made all the difference," Struve said of the former president's appearances on digital media platforms and media catering to Latino communities, like town halls and business roundtables Trump attended in Las Vegas and Miami. READ: Not only did Trump spend three hours on Joe Rogan's chart-topping podcast, but he took up DeChambeau's “Break 50” challenge for the golfer's more than 1.6 million YouTube subscribers. Trump already had an edge among young white men four years ago, although he widened the gap this year. About half of white men under 30 supported Trump in 2020, and slightly less than half supported Biden. Trump's gains among young Latino and Black men were bigger. His support among both groups increased by about 20 percentage points, according to AP VoteCast — and their feelings toward Trump got warmer, too. It wasn’t just Trump. The share of young men who identified as Republicans in 2024 rose as well, mostly aligning with support for Trump across all three groups. “What is most alarming to me is that the election is clear that America has shifted right by a lot,” said William He, founder of Dream For America, a liberal group that works to turn out young voters and supported Harris’ presidential bid. With his bombastic demeanor and a policy agenda centered on a more macho understanding of culture , Trump framed much of his campaign as a pitch to men who felt scorned by the country’s economy, culture and political system. Young women also slightly swung toward the former president, though not to the degree of their male counterparts. It's unclear how many men simply did not vote this year. But there's no doubt the last four years brought changes in youth culture and how political campaigns set out to reach younger voters. Democrat Kamala Harris' campaign rolled out policy agendas tailored to Black and Latino men, and the campaign enlisted a range of leaders in Black and Hispanic communities to make the case for the vice president. Her campaign began with a flurry of enthusiasm from many young voters, epitomized in memes and the campaign's embrace of pop culture trends like the pop star Charli XCX's “brat” aesthetic . Democrats hoped to channel that energy into their youth voter mobilization efforts. “I think most young voters just didn’t hear the message,” said Santiago Mayer, executive director of Voters of Tomorrow, a liberal group that engages younger voters. Mayer said the Harris campaign’s pitch to the country was “largely convoluted” and centered on economic messaging that he said wasn’t easily conveyed to younger voters who were not already coming to political media. “And I think that the policies themselves were also very narrow and targeted when what we really needed was a simple, bold economic vision,” said Mayer. Trump also embraced pop culture by appearing at UFC fights, football games and appearing alongside comedians, music stars and social media influencers. His strategists believed that the former president’s ability to grab attention and make his remarks go viral did more for the campaign than paid advertisements or traditional media appearances. Trump's campaign also heavily cultivated networks of online conservative platforms and personalities supportive of him while also engaging a broader universe of podcasts, streaming sites, digital media channels and meme pages open to hearing him. “The right has been wildly successful in infiltrating youth political culture online and on campus in the last couple of years, thus radicalizing young people towards extremism,” said He, who cited conservative activist groups like Turning Point USA as having an outsize impact in online discourse. “And Democrats have been running campaigns in a very old fashioned way. The battleground these days is cultural and increasingly on the internet.” Republicans may lose their broad support if they don't deliver on improving Americans' lives, Struve cautioned. Young men, especially, may drift from the party in a post-Trump era if the party loses the president-elect's authenticity and bravado. Bienvenido, for one group, will double down in the coming years to solidify and accelerate the voting pattern shifts seen this year, Struve said. “We don’t want this to be a one and done thing,” he said. ___ Associated Press writer Joey Cappelletti in Lansing, Michigan, and AP polling editor Amelia Thomson-DeVeaux contributed to this report.

Haynes' 18 help George Mason defeat Mount St. Mary's 64-56
CEO killer suspect: golden boy who soured on US health systemST. PAUL — Former Minnesota Senate Majority Leader Kari Dziedzic died Friday following a battle with cancer. She was 62. Her family said she died surrounded by loved ones. “She had a heart of gold, willing to go to any measure to help those she loved,” they said in a statement. ADVERTISEMENT Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party Chair Ken Martin the Minneapolis Democrat was committed to working for Minnesotans. She served in the Minnesota Senate for more than a decade. “It is impossible to overstate the positive impact that Senator Dziedzic’s leadership has had on our state,” Martin said in a statement. “She devoted her life to making her fellow Minnesotans’ lives better, and she refused to allow cancer to get in her way. Minnesota has lost a giant, but her extraordinary legacy will outlast us all.” Dziedzic was instrumental in holding together the Senate DFL caucus in 2023 as they passed, with a one-vote majority, a variety of Democratic priorities like funding universal school meals for students, approving a paid family and medical leave program, cementing legal protections for abortion and gender-affirming care and legalizing cannabis for recreational use. She was respected on both sides of the political aisle and her demeanor was always steady, even amid tense times in the Senate. Dziedzic’s laid-back style made her a surprising pick for majority leader after the 2022 election. Leaders from both major political parties said they were heartbroken by her death. “Senator Kari Dziedzic was a passionate legislator, a respected leader, and a trusted colleague and friend. She will be remembered for her integrity and her compassion for Minnesotans, something that we all saw as she continued to serve even as she battled cancer,” said Senate Minority Leader Mark Johnson, an East Grand Forks Republican. “I’m deeply saddened at her passing and am praying for her family and friends as we all mourn this loss.” House Speaker Melissa Hortman, DFL-Brooklyn Park, said she was “one of the most skilled diplomats ever to serve in elected office.” ADVERTISEMENT “Her legacy includes significant achievements in policy and investment in Minnesota, but more importantly she will be remembered for treating people with dignity and respect and never giving up on finding workable compromises,” Hortman said. “She had an incredible ability to work diligently through the most arcane and difficult policy issues to find resolution.” Senate Majority Leader Erin Murphy, DFL-St. Paul, agreed, saying she was “an uncommon leader.” “Her talents as a consequential and thoughtful leader made us all better legislators, and her examples of kindness humor, and selflessness made us all better people,” Murphy said. Former Senate DFL Leader Melisa López Franzen praised Dziedzic as a hard worker. “The last time I spoke to Kari a few weeks ago she was still serving her constituents,” she wrote on social media. “That’s Senator Dziedzic, the hardest working legislator I have ever had the honor to serve with. Rest in peace my friend.” Dziedzic was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2023 and underwent emergency surgery to limit its spread. She stepped down from her leadership position in February after her cancer recurred. The Senate will now stand in a 33-33 tie between Democrats and Republicans heading into the 2025 legislative session. Gov. Tim Walz has not yet said when he might call for a special election in the Minneapolis district. ADVERTISEMENT Dziedzic had a degree in engineering but couldn’t resist the family pull into public service. Her father, Walt, was a colorful Minneapolis city council member who later served on the park board. Dziedzic told MPR News that she felt drawn into politics after watching her father’s example. “I knew the long hours. I knew the phone calls at home. I knew what I was walking into,” she said. “But I also knew the opportunity that you have to help other people. And it’s about helping people and making your community better.” Dziedzic began a career in public service as a campaign volunteer and later moved on to become a scheduling aide for former U.S. Sen. Paul Wellstone. After a stint working for a Hennepin County commissioner, she was nudged to run for a state Senate seat when longtime lawmaker Larry Pogemiller stepped down to take another government job. Gov. Tim Walz called Dziedzic a “one-of-a-kind leader.” He added, “Her legacy should inspire all of us in elected office to be better public servants.” Details for a memorial service have not yet been announced. ______________________________________________________ This story was written by one of our partner news agencies.
