Hello? Hello? Is it April 1 yet? Who released this April Fools prank 3 months early?! I need to talk to President Palin about this.

: Jen Patterson to remain with Comcast SportsNet even as 'Monsters' move on

: The "Monsters" are moving on, but Jen Patterson is staying put.

: Jen Patterson, a radio, Internet and TV producer for sports-talk host Mike North who got on-camera exposure through weather, traffic and highlights segments on his short-lived Comcast SportsNet Chicago program, is sticking with the cable channel even as North and co-host Dan Jiggetts prepare to launch a new show on CBS-owned WBBM-Ch. 2.

: Patterson, it was announced Wednesday, will do some on-camera work in addition to producing feature segments and coordinating guest booking for various Comcast SportsNet programs.

:
: �Jen has proven herself to be a rising on-air and off-air TV talent in our city and we�re thrilled she�ll be with us to lend her expertise to our newsroom,� Charlie Schumacher, CSN Chicago's senior news director, said in a statement.

: Before serving as associate producer of "Monsters in the Morning" during its 2009 run, Patterson rose from intern to executive producer over four years with the �The Mike North Morning Show� on CBS-owned WSCR-AM 670, giving weather and news reports. She also was a stage manager for Fox Broadcasting's Saturday baseball coverage.

: A 2005 graduate of Columbia College who grew up in north suburban Libertyville, Patterson was Comcast SportsNet's first intern.

: "I'm grateful for the opportunity to continue to build a strong relationship with Comcast SportsNet,� Patterson said in the announcement.

: North, Jiggetts, Chicago Sun-Times finance columnist Terry Savage and former CNBC correspondent Mike Hegedus are set to team on WBBM's "Monsters and Money in the Morning," a 5 to 7 a.m. weekday roundtable program scheduled to make its debut on Feb. 1.
