In 2008, Paul was hired to host his own radio program, "The Paul Lisnek Show," as the only Caucasian host on the otherwise all African-American station because he impressed owner Melody Spann Cooper so much that she decided to bring him on board. His show remained among the most popular shows through its run; and,
WHEREAS, Paul's primary role on WGN-TV began in 2008 following a guest appearance on the # 1 rated WGN Morning News to discuss his then new book, "The Hidden Jury." He was hired shortly thereafter as the political analyst for WGN-TV and CLTV appearing on all news programs discussing political and legal matters, a role he continues to hold to this day; and,
