Dean Richards, the veteran Chicago media personality, entertainment critic and talk show host, returns to work this weekend two weeks after he tested positive for COVID-19, Robert Feder writes.
For at least the next week or so, Richards said, he ll broadcast from his home. On Sunday he ll be back on Nexstar Media Group news/talk WGN 720-AM, where Dean Richards Sunday Morning airs from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. The following day he ll return to WGN Morning News on Nexstar Media Group WGN-Channel 9.
Richards, 66, said he had a slight fever and felt achy the first day of his illness, but otherwise was not seriously affected. My breathing was never compromised at all except for a little congestion and coughing, but I was not even remotely as bad as you hear about other people, he said.
