The dirty secret was that the ChiSox routinely out-drew the Cubs. But if you listened to the media, the Cubs were some kind of historic franchise.
It helped the Cubs when the Tribune company took over. WGN had just become a superstation, they bought Harry away from the Sox and broadcast their club to the nation.
I wish had been around to see Harry and Jimmy Piersall drink, yell and sing the 7th inning stretch during broadcasts at Old Comiskey.

WGN, Harry Carey (who completely changed his personality from a sourpuss to an affable granddaddy when he went to the Cub), Sportsvision. Also the Sox basically gave Indiana to the Cubs when they moved the minor league teams out of the Midwest.
