Gray Makes Station Management Changes

Gray Television  announced that it “has streamlined the senior management of its television station operations” including promoting several general managers to new positions as regional vice president/general manager. They will continue managing their current stations as they assume oversight of additional Gray stations.

The changes, Gray said, “result from the decision of Senior Vice President-Local Media Tim Ingram to resign his position to pursue other opportunities outside of Gray Television.” Bob Smith, Gray’s chief operating officer, said: “We wish Tim all the best in his new endeavors and thank him for many years of service to Gray and the local communities in which he successfully led our leading local television stations.”
