Karpowitz Is Broadcaster of the Year

摘要

Broadcasting & Cable has named Paul Karpowicz as its Broadcaster of the Year. He'll be honored March 27, when the Television Bureau of Advertising (TVB) holds its sixth annual marketing conference in New York. Paul Karpowicz is the President of Meredith Broadcasting Group, which owns one radio property and 12 television stations that reach nearly 10% of television households across the country. Karpowicz, who also serves as chairman of the TVB Board, has been a tireless champion of the group's latest-and perhaps most critical-initiative: ePort, an electronic delivery system for advertisers, agencies and networks. TVB's ePort went live last month with electronic orders, and TVB said that 644 stations in 186 markets, including all of the top 100 markets, are now committed to TVB eP-ort, and coverage has reached 97.8% of the U.S.
