Jim Burke, president of ad sales for Fox Television Stations, will retire at the end of July. He’s been in his current role since 1997 and with the station group since 1991.
“Over the past 32 years, Jim Burke has been responsible for billions of dollars of local sales, probably more than anyone else in the history of local TV,” Fox Television Stations CEO Jack Abernethy said. “During his extraordinary career here at Fox, Jim has earned the trust and admiration of his colleagues and led a meritocracy with a training program that has produced countless general managers and sales executives.”
