Fox News Creates New Team
I received a press release from Fox News…
I won’t bore you with the whole release, but I’ll share the first paragraph.
“FOX News Media (FNM) has named a new advertising sales leadership team, announced Jeff Collins, president of advertising sales, marketing and brand partnerships for Fox Corporation. Effective immediately, Trey Gargano will serve as executive vice president of ad sales, overseeing all FNM platforms, including FOX News Channel, FOX Business Network, FOX News Digital, FOX News Audio, FOX Weather and FOX Nation. He will replace Collins, who was recently elevated to president of the division for FOX Corporation. Additionally, Ryan Roelle has been promoted to senior vice president of national sales where she will focus on endemic and national advertising in addition to leading linear and digital sales across the country. Roelle will report to Gargano and continue to be based in Chicago.”
In all my years working in TV, I never heard someone say, “You know what we really need around here? More sales people.”
But hey, hopefully, it works out for them.
