Another high ranking NBC Exec departs…

Ad Age Abbey Klaassen writes about the departuree of the President of Sales for NBC, Keith Turner…

Media buyers say Mr. Turner wasn’t a very visible executive in the media. “Keith stays, Keith leaves. Won’t make a difference,” said one buyer who didn’t wish to be named. “They have plenty of qualified people in that company under Keith.”

Indeed, last month after Mr. Falco’s departure, one media buyer told Advertising Age that part of NBC’s problem was too many cooks. “I heard there’s a four-headed monster with [TV Group CEO] Jeff Zucker, [NBC Universal President-Digital Sales] Beth Comstock, Randy Falco and Keith Turner. Now I guess it’s a three-headed monster.” It appears the monster only has two heads left.
