Gray Television has given a multimedia journalist who joined its Washington, D.C., bureau in June 2015 a promotion, naming him Senior National Correspondent for the bureau. However, he’ll be based in New York.
Getting the elevated role is Peter Zampa. He’ll be covering the local impact of national and international stories for Gray affiliates, including Wall Street and the United Nations. He will also provide unique analysis for “Local News Live,” Gray’s streaming network that provides live news coverage on more than 500 Gray station websites, connected TV apps, and mobile apps.
Gray Television Chief Operating Officer Sandy Breland commented, “Peter will focus not only on the big stories happening in New York City, but how they affect the communities we serve.”
Lisa Allen, the GM of Gray’s Washington operations, added, “Peter is a relatable storyteller who understands how to connect national headlines with viewers’ concerns in each of our markets. We are excited to expand our coverage to New York City and give our audience a new lens on the news events that impact their daily lives.”
