Media Moves

In June 2017, she departed the FOX affiliate serving Panama City, Fla., for a crosstown role with Nexstar Media Group and most recently served as General Sales Manager of JVC Broadcasting's radio stations in the market. It turns out that leaving local TV after so many years just wasn't in the cards for Stacie Bolster.

The North Carolina Public Radio Association has a little bit of a cash injection that will help it support initiatives designed to keep its 13 Member stations' lights on. A $85,000 grant from the North Carolina Local News Lab Fund has been accepted by the NCPRA, which will support the hiring of an underwriting salesperson.

In August 2021, the Asst. ND of KSNV-TV in Las Vegas relocated to Charleston, W. Va., to serve in a similar role atSinclair Inc.'s WCHS-TV and Cunningham Broadcasting-licensed shared services partner WVAH-TV. Starting in late August, he'll be taking on ND duties for Lockwood Broadcast Group's ABC affiliate in Wichita.

TEGNA's NBC affiliate in St. Louis, which must remain in a "hold separate" state despite its ultimate ownership by Nexstar Media Group, has chosen a lead anchor for its local evening newscasts — another sign that becoming a full sibling of KTVI "FOX 2" and KPLR-11 is potentially years away.

The parent organization of the PBS and NPR Member stations serving Florida's First Coast and Brunswick, Ga., to its north, has selected its next President/CEO. She'll begin her new role on August 31 and is an "accomplished leader with deep ties" to WJCT-TV and WJCT-FM in Jacksonville.

He joins UPR following leadership roles in both commercial and public broadcasting, most recently serving in senior management at Penn State University's WPSU Radio. During his career, he has overseen broadcast operations, programming, and audience development at university-affiliated media organizations.

PMI was founded by American Public Media Group, the National Federation of Community Broadcasters, New York Public Radio, PRX, and the Station Resource Group through one of the final grants awarded by the now-defunded CPB to modernize the critical technology infrastructure that powers public media.

Until a move to the UK in October 2024, he served as Director of Corporate Program Operations for Gray Media. Now, he's at TitanTV, the company focused on providing TV viewers with the most accurate program listing and channel information.

The Operations Manager for a group of Rapid City, S. Dakota, radio stations owned by the company led by Carolyn Becker has taken a similar position at the licensee owned and overseen by Jeffrey Warshaw.

The parent organization of omnipresent noncommercial Christian music networks K-LOVE and Air1 is welcoming a new Chief Marketing and Communications Officer. He begins his new role on September 1 and is inbound from Centricity Music. 

The Chief Executive Officer of FOX Television Stations has been selected as Chair of the Broadcasters Foundation of America's 2026 Celebrity Golf Tournament, scheduled for September 14 at Siwanoy Country Club, in the Westchester County city of Bronxville.

She's a native of Georgia's Coastal Empire who has risen through the ranks over the last nine years at the local television operations owned by Sinclair Inc. Now, she's rising from Station Manager at the FOX affiliate in Savannah while also taking on the top leadership role at the dual FOX and ABC affiliate in nearby Macon.

DRG Media has named a new General Manager and Director of Sales and Operations at the South Dakota-based radio broadcasting company. He'll now oversee seven stations after five years as Director of Sales and Campaign Development at Riverfront Broadcasting in Rapid City.

He first attracted a loyal audience at "62 KGW," which aired a Top 40 format until the rise of FM radio stations in the 1980s. He'd go on to a fruitful tenure at "K103," today an iHeartMedia-owned AC stalwart in the local ratings. Now, many are mourning the loss of Craig Walker, who died suddenly on Wednesday.

He was born and raised in San Juan, and in 1993 started his career at WLDI "Oldies 94.7" — a short-lived attempt to bring mainland hits from the late 1950s through the early 1970s with a Spanish-language presentation. Today, he's VP/GM of SBS's stations in Orlando and Tampa and is adding duties in Puerto Rico, too.
