“We are grieved and shocked at the sudden loss of one of our own,” said David Amy, EVP and chief operating officer of Sinclair Broadcast Group on the death of Gealy, a group manager for multiple markets.
The former Acme Communications exec will oversee Sinclair’s stations in Washington, Raleigh, N.C., and Richmond, Va.
Doug Gealy, a co-founder of the company who has been its president-CEO, becomes a consultant and acting CEO, while Stan Gill is elevated to president-COO as the company continues to sell its stations.
