CBS RADIO/WASHINGTON, D.C. SVP/Market Mgr. MICHAEL HUGHES exits to launch his own specialized broadcast management consultancy, MHMEDIA. Headquartered in Annapolis, MD, MHMedia already has its first client -- be EMPIRE BROADCASTING SYSTEM Triple A WRNR/ANAPOLIS.
HUGHES will assist clients in all aspects of station oversight including revenue development, product enhancement and branding, staffing, digital platforms, profit generation and overall asset value enrichment.
"My experience in every facet of broadcasting over the last 25 years has me uniquely prepared for this tipping point in our industry," he said. "Almost every day I speak with peers across the industry seeking fresh ideas and contrarian perspectives in these challenging times. While I most certainly will miss working with DAN MASON and all the terrific pros at CBS, the chance to engage with dedicated professionals across a broad spectrum of ownership entities has me very excited."
"We are thrilled to have someone of MICHAEL’s caliber joining our team and such a move demonstrates our commitment to success at WRNR and in serving this community," EMPIRE BROADCASTING Owner STEVE KINGSTON said. "The breadth and depth of MICHAEL’s experience will allow us to maximize WRNR in all areas of traditional over the air broadcasting, digital media, sales, marketing and content development where many new ideas will be conceived, tested, and implemented."
