Fred Weintraub

Fred Weintraub, an executive producer at Weigel Broadcasting Co. with more than four decades of media expertise, is known for creating the broadcast company's popular "Game of the Week," in addition to covering the British royal family as "Chicago's Royal Watcher." In 2019, Weintraub was inducted into the Silver Circle, the highest honor awarded to broadcasters by the Chicago/Midwest chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, in recognition of his lifetime contributions in media. Weintraub also co-hosts the syndicated radio show "The Hannah & Fred Show" with Hannah Stanley on WCGO and Smart Talk Radio.

In his new show, "The Worldly File," which airs nationwide via The Smart Talk Radio Network, Weintraub provides commentary each week on something happening in the world that impacts America. His views are sometimes controversial, sometimes humorous but always honest — in other words, pure Fred Weintraub. In this edition of "The Worldly File," Fred calls out CNN's Chris Cuomo for not covering his brother the governor the way he covers all breaking news. You won't want to miss it.
