Cumulus Media has promoted three senior managers.
The broadcaster owns or operates 570 radio stations and has 4,000 affiliates of its radio network.
Chuck Bortnick, currently regional vice president for Cumulus northeast markets, moves to Houston to take the reins at KRBE(FM). The company says Bortnick will also have regional vice president responsibility for certain markets in that region.
Bortnick previously spent nine years in Houston for Cumulus. He replaces Donna Baker, who’s moving to Chicago as market manager of WLS(AM/FM). Baker joined Cumulus as market manager of Kansas City in 2008.
She replaces Dave Crowl who will take on additional regional vice president duties in his region, which is expanding and continue to oversee operations in Chicago.
Cumulus Chief Operating Officer Jon Pinch called all three top performers and said the company is fortunate to be able to promote from within.
