On December 16, 2020, after 22 years with WTMX, it was announced that Melissa McGurren had declined a contract extension, much to station management's surprise. Jeff England, Vice President and Market Manager at Hubbard Chicago, stated "We were disappointed by her decision not to renew her contract, but also know that this year has led all of us to assess our lives in different ways. England stated "When she informed me of her decision, she described her time at the station as 'a privilege' and that feeling is completely mutual. We wish her the best."
