Under the new pact, DAVIS will continue to oversee the success and close integration of the company's extensive multiplatform assets, including the iHEARTRADIO NETWORK, PREMIERE NETWORKS, TOTAL TRAFFIC + WEATHER NETWORK, and the NBC NEWS RADIO NETWORK, as well as iHEARTMEDIA’s in-house audio and visual creative agency. He'll also continue as President of iHEARTRADIO.
“We’re pleased that DARREN will continue to lead the integration of our Networks group that enables iHEARTMEDIA to harness the unparalleled power, reach and scale of our digital and broadcast platforms,” iHEARTMEDIA, INC. Chairman/CEO BOB PITTMAN. “His twenty-five-years of experience working in every facet of iHEARTMEDIA means he has a unique understanding of every aspect of our company -- from our broadcast radio stations and iHEARTRADIO to our sales teams and partnerships, and how they can all work together to best serve our consumers, partners, affiliates and advertisers.”
“Since I was a kid, I knew I’d spend my life in radio,” said DAVIS. “I’ve seen a lot in the last twenty-five years as iHEARTMEDIA has expanded into multiple platforms like the industry-leading iHEARTRADIO. There isn’t a day that goes by where I’m not amazed by iHEARTMEDIA’s evolution, which is built on broadcast radio — my first love — and now provides one-of-a-kind programming, entertainment and opportunities to connect our advertising partners across our unparalleled range of multiple platforms in ways that no other company can. I’m thrilled to be continuing this journey.”
