That's what fellow WGN employee, popular radio personality Bob Collins, dubbed Tom Skilling. I would put this in the article, but it's too obscure. Wahkeenah 03:10, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

This article was automatically assessed because at least one WikiProject had rated the article as start, and the rating on other projects was brought up to start class. BetacommandBot 16:38, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
I added reference for statement that is also a link at the bottom of the page for Tom Skilling.
Could not find off hand reference in a current location as for Tom's pay, other than I remember the Chicago Sun-Times - Feder - media column mentioning that Tom is the highest paid Chicago Tribune employee. One-Million dollars has been written in the Sun-Times and maybe Tribune as the four highest paid local television news people, each paid around $1-million or more.
Most watched is a question, because it would be ranked number of cable households vs. actual rating of WGN Superstation. According to Sam Zell the new owner this may soon change and the station cable version will become more like TBS, without local news. (recent Chicago Tribune Phil Rosenthal).
I don't have source info so I post it here, to search for later, or if someone else wants to search from here... Kidsheaven ( talk) 23:10, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

It says in the text his contract with WGN expires 2022. I'm on WGN right now and he's forecasting. 2600:1008:B155:8970:40A2:D4FF:FE02:BC4C ( talk) 02:03, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
Is it necessary to call Tom Skilling's brother "disgraced" in the article? The article is about Tom and shouldn't take away from the fact. IXPpl ( talk) 12:44, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
