In part with the announcement that it was integrating its English-language platforms, CBC also announced today that executive VP of CBC Television Richard Stursberg will now assume the role of executive VP of English services. "The change announced today creates a corporate structure that will enable CBC to respond effectively to our changing, multi-platform environment," said Stursberg. "At the same time, we recognize the importance of protecting the distinct character and needs of our individual media offerings-most emphatically the unique, non-commercial voice of CBC Radio."
CBC also promoted Jennifer McGuire from executive director of programming for CBC Radio to the new position of executive director of CBC Radio with an expanded portfolio of responsibilities.
