I don't watch much TV anymore (not that I'm a snob about it) but today I watched John McCain's speech on channel 11. Chicago Tonight followed the speech so I kept the TV on. What was strange is that now they have commercial breaks for Bank of America and to a lesser extent Allstate. When did the start the commercial breaks and does this mean that WTTW got rid of the begathons? I think it's been a couple of years since I watched a program on WTTW.
