There’s a new leader for several Gray Media markets across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic Region of the U.S. And, it is the woman who for the past seven years has been General Manager of WFSB-3 in Hartford, a former Meredith Local Media property that has long-served as Connecticut’s CBS affiliate.
Earning the promotion is Dana Neves, who has led WFSB and Connecticut-focused broadcast sports network The Wax since its launch last year.
Gray will soon begin a search for Neves’ successor.
Neves began at WFSB as an intern. Over the years, she rose through the ranks with distinction, serving as News Director, Regional News Director, General Manager, and Senior Vice President for Meredith Corp. She also had national responsibility for labor relations for Meredith’s print and broadcast facilities in New York, St. Louis, Kansas City and Saginaw.
Following Gray’s acquisition of Meredith’s Local Media Group, she began to oversee Gray’s stations in Connecticut, Maine and Massachusetts as a Regional Vice President while retaining her position as WFSB’s GM.
Recently, Gray named Neves the Chair of its Innovation Lab.
