iHEARTMEDIA MARKETS GROUP is creating a new SOUTHWEST Division that will include many Regions formerly in its CENTRAL Division. Other former CENTRAL Division Regions will be moved into the WEST and MIDWEST/SOUTHEAST Divisions to better align them with the right resources and operating structure.

In addition to overseeing the new SOUTHWEST Division, ASHLOCK will add the DENVER, WESTERN GREAT LAKES, and OMAHA Regions to his existing WEST Division. THE ST. LOUIS, NASHVILLE, and MID-SOUTH Regions will move to the MIDWEST/SOUTHEAST Division under President TOM MCCONNELL. The PITTSBURGH Region, formerly part of the MIDWEST/SOUTHEAST Division, will now move to the NORTHEAST Division under President HARTLEY ADKINS.
