Mayor Emanuel Will Be On All Wavelengths Nov. 14

(CBS) – It will be an unprecedented event on Chicago radio airwaves.

For a half an hour Nov. 14, at 6 p.m., more than 40 Chicagoland radio stations with a variety of formats, including WBBM Newsradio, will simultaneously air a "Chicago Radio Town Hall Meeting" – a conversation with the mayor about issues facing the city.

Doug Levy, chairman of the Illinois Broadcast Association, says it's something that has not been done before.

"Once we had the idea and dialogue started, it was an overwhelming amount of support," he tells WBBM's Lisa Fielding.

IBA Hall of Fame broadcast journalist Bill Kurtis will moderate the even.
