After more than 26 years at CBS Sports, the network's ad-sales chief is set to depart following one final NCAA tournament and Masters golf competition. Known affectionately as 'Bogie,' John Bogusz has played a pivotal role in securing advertisers for major sporting events such as the Masters, NCAA March Madness, Sunday NFL games, and most recently, Super Bowl LVIII.
His impending exit coincides with a period of transition within CBS Sports, as the long-serving chairman of the sports business, Sean McManus, is also stepping away. Bogusz's departure follows CBS's successful orchestration of a record-breaking ad revenue of over $600 million for Super Bowl LVIII, partly fueled by the game going into overtime.
