CBS Promotes Lance Frank to Lead Communications for CBS News, Stations

CBS is promoting Lance Frank to lead all communications for CBS News, Stations & Media Ventures.

Frank, a 13-year CBS News veteran, will oversee all internal and external communications for CBS News, CBS Stations, syndication, talent, programming, first-run syndication and division strategy, reporting to Wendy McMahon, president and CEO of CBS News and Stations and CBS Media Ventures; and also Chris Ender, CBS executive VP of communications.

Frank has served as a key adviser to CBS News executives like McMahon, and has also worked closely with talent across the division at shows like 60 Minutes and the CBS Evening News.

“I’ve personally known Lance for a long time. He is a gifted communicator, a great strategist and a trusted advisor,” McMahon wrote in a note to staff Thursday. “Just as important, he understands the power of collaboration. In a short period, he’s already energized, encouraged and empowered the cross-division team to work together. He truly sees the value, strength and effectiveness that emerges when people work as one team.”

“Since January, Lance has hit the ground running with speed and purpose, skillfully communicating new developments in the organization and amplifying our editorial coverage on broadcast, digital and streaming,” added Ender in a note of his own. “He is a big thinker, an excellent adviser for senior leaders, and a terrific collaborator with all our CBS comms teams. Positive media relations and talent relations are core to his DNA (as are Saturday afternoons in the fall rooting for his LSU Tigers).”
