John Deushane, WXIA-WATL Atlanta president and general manager, is retiring as of August 4. The stations, an NBC station known as 11 Alive and a MyNetworkTV affiliate, are part of Tegna. Deushane took on the Atlanta GM role in 2010.
“While there have been wonderful moments throughout my career, I can without equivocation say that the past 13 years at 11Alive have been the most rewarding,” he said in a memo to staff. “And that’s because of the opportunity to work with so many passionate and dedicated professionals like each of you.”
