In this newly created senior leadership role, Dagan will be responsible for reimagining and aligning the news operations and engineering functions across CBS News and Stations, which in April of this year began combining their journalistic and business resources to form a new division of ViacomCBS, jointly led by Wendy McMahon and Neeraj Khemlani.
Dagan, who assumes his new responsibilities next month and will be based in New York, joins CBS News and Stations after having most recently served as network director of news content at Network 10, the ViacomCBS-owned network based in Sydney, Australia, since 2018. While there, he oversaw major editorial and operational changes, positioning the network to optimize workflows and evolving technology around the cloud and artificial intelligence to improve processes.
