Baltimore-based Sinclair Broadcast Group announced that Dan Mellon will be the general manager of D.C.’s WJLA (ABC) and local cable news network, NewsChannel 8 (“NC8”).
“I am grateful for the opportunity to work with the entire WJLA team as Sinclair expands its footprint to our nation’s Capital,” commented Mellon. “In addition to having a world-class local television station in Washington, the full-blown news operations at WJLA and NC8 connects the station to breaking news events at all branches of our Federal government and allows Sinclair an immediate conduit to provide our local news stations across the country access to their representatives and the decision making that impacts our viewers. With WJLA and NC8 servicing multiple markets in D.C., Maryland and Virginia, we believe there is much more we can do to assist our advertisers and bring meaningful content to our viewers.”
