The WZZN call sign was dropped at Midnight on June 25, 2008, and as of 12:01 am on June 26, 2008, the station has officially been known as WLS-FM.<sup id="cite_ref-39" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-39"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>39<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The idea was to bring back the heritage of WLS and its old Top 40 format and jingles. The station was then branded as "94.7 WLS-FM" with the slogan "Chicago's Greatest Hits Of All Time". The first song on the current incarnation of WLS-FM was a special radio edit of "<a href="/wiki/Life_Is_a_Rock_(But_the_Radio_Rolled_Me)" title="Life Is a Rock (But the Radio Rolled Me)">Life Is a Rock (But the Radio Rolled Me)</a>" by <a href="/wiki/Reunion_(band)" class="mw-redirect" title="Reunion (band)">Reunion</a>, one played as a Top 40 hit on the original WLS which would explicitly mention the station in their lyrics.<sup id="cite_ref-40" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-40"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>40<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-41" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-41"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>41<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Citadel merged with <a href="/wiki/Cumulus_Media" title="Cumulus Media">Cumulus Media</a> on September 16, 2011.<sup id="cite_ref-42" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-42"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>42<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Shift_to_classic_hits">Shift to classic hits</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=WLS-FM&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Shift to classic hits"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>On October 1, 2012, WLS-FM modified its oldies format to a classic rock-leaning classic hits format. The Scott Shannon "True Oldies Channel" branding, programming, and voice tracking were removed.<sup id="cite_ref-43" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-43"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>43<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The pre-1964 oldies were dropped entirely, while Motown and 1970s pop and disco hits were cut back, and more 1980s songs were also added. The focus on the station was now hits of the 1970s and early 1980s with only several 1960s songs per hour. Morning DJ <a href="/wiki/Dave_Fogel" title="Dave Fogel">Dave Fogel</a> was released to make room for Brant Miller's return to the station (Fogel was hired at WJMK just two days after being let go from WLS). Fred Winston was also hired as a full-time DJ in afternoons. In 2013, Robert Murphy was hired as an afternoon jock; Winston was let go. </p><p>On November 3, 2014, Jack Diamond, formerly of sister station <a href="/wiki/WRQX" class="mw-redirect" title="WRQX">WRQX</a> in Washington, D.C., became WLS-FM's new morning show host, with Miller shifting to a co-hosting role.<sup id="cite_ref-44" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-44"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>44<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Diamond would leave the station in July 2015, with Miller re-assuming a main hosting role. Kim Berk, formerly of <a href="/wiki/WWFS" class="mw-redirect" title="WWFS">WWFS</a> in New York, joined Miller as co-host in January 2016. Robert Murphy was released from the station in December 2016 to be replaced by Ron Parker (from <a href="/wiki/WCBS-FM" title="WCBS-FM">WCBS-FM</a> in New York) to handle afternoon duties. As of late 2017, the focus is now mainly hits of the 1970s through the early 1980s, with a small sampling of pre-1970/post-1989 and mid-late 1980s and early 1990s hits mixed in due to the playlist being limited. The start of 2018 brought <a href="/wiki/Dave_Fogel" title="Dave Fogel">Dave Fogel</a> back to WLS-FM as Berk's morning co-host, with Miller briefly moving to a weather reporting only position, until being released.<sup id="cite_ref-45" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-45"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>45<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>On November 17, 2017, WLS-FM

class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Following the shift to classic hits, the station would gradually downplay the connection to WLS-AM, including the phaseout of their signature 5-note sound jingle in promotions in favor of simply saying the name without musical accompaniment at some undetermined point around 2015; however, the station would bring back said sound jingle on March 11, 2024, introducing an updated version as part of a new station soundbed produced by audio technician service TM Studios, reemphasizing the WLS connection once more.<sup id="cite_ref-47"
