"I had the privilege of working with Brent for more than a decade in Indianapolis," said Larry Delia, senior vice president, Tegna. "He has proven himself to be a tremendous talent, fostering a strong, collaborative team and building deep relationships within the community. I have no doubt he will lead WTHR/WALV with the same integrity, vision, and dedication that have defined his career."
