CNN Worldwide, or Cable News Network International, announced it has appointed a new chief operating officer for its business operations worldwide. The company named David C. Leavy as its new COO.
As per Deadline, the newly-appointed COO is a top executive at Warner Bros. Discovery. He is also a long-time assistant of the New York-headquartered mass media and entertainment company’s chief executive officer, David Zaslav.
He has been with Warner Bros. Discovery for 23 years already, and his position before the COO appointment is the head of corporate affairs at CNN Global, CNN Worldwide’s parent company. It was said that even as he moves to a new role at the news network, Leavy will still maintain public policy and social responsibility administration.
The TV network said that Leavy’s appointment will take effect on June 20, and once he takes over, his task at the company include overseeing the commercial business and managing both operational and promotional activities across the entire TV network. He is expected to report to CNN Worldwide chairman and CEO, Chris Licht.
“David’s deep operational experience, institutional knowledge and key industry relationships perfectly complement the strengths of our leadership team,” Licht said in a press release. “He is a strategic, versatile and dynamic executive who will work with myself and the senior leadership team to help transform our business as we get the full programming slate on the air, build out our digital future and grow the CNN brand around the world.”
The CNN Worldwide CEO added, “Everyone who works with David has seen how his energy, work ethic and collaborative style positively impacts an organization, and I can’t wait for him to join me and the CNN team.”
