There’s a new General Manager to start the New Year at a pair of Gray Media television stations. One is in Mississippi, while the other is in the Rocky Mountain State.
In Colorado, Jacque Harms as the next General Manager of KKTV-11, the CBS affiliate in Colorado Springs-Pueblo.
Harms has more than 35 years of experience in the media business, most recently as General Manager at WTOK-TV in Meridian, Mississippi. Harms has held that role for 4 1/2 years, and her successor has also been revealed by Gray Media.
That would be Alison Davis, who adds GM duties while retaining her role as Director/Sales. WTOK is an ABC affiliate with digital multicast channels offering The CW and Telemundo, respectively.
The changes are effective Monday (1/6).
Under Harms’ leadership, WTOK -TV was the Mississippi Association of Broadcasters Small Market Station of the Year in 2024 and a National Association of Broadcasters Service to America Finalist in 2021. She is the recipient of multiple AP and MAB awards.
“I am honored and excited to join the Colorado Springs community and KKTV family,” Harms said. “Our commitment to delivering engaging content on broadcast and digital platforms with a focus on the best news and weather content, will remain our top priority.”
Harms previously served as News Director and as an anchor, reporter, and producer at KNOP-TV in North Platte, Neb.
Davis has more than 30 years experience in media sales. After beginning her broadcast career as a local account executive in Fort Wayne, Ind., she relocated to Indianapolis and held various sales positions at Comcast Spotlight and subsequently the local CBS and FOX affiliated stations in sales management.
“In my short time in Meridian, I have grown to love this community, and look forward to maintaining those relationships and meeting more clients and leaders in the viewing area to continue the long standing 70 year legacy of WTOK,” Davis said.
