Veteran General Manager Frank Brady is retiring from Quincy Media’s NBC affiliate WVVA Bluefield, W.Va., where he has been VP-GM for more than 15 years.
Before joining WVVA, Brady was VP-GM of KHQA Quincy, Ill. He has enjoyed a 47-year broadcasting career. WVVA is the ratings leader in Bluefield-Beckley and the dominant news operation. During Brady’s tenure as VP-GM, WVVA has added nine additional hours of news programming, entered the digital and high-definition era and added four additional channels to its digital signal. “Frank has always understood the role of a television station and the important leadership it can provide to its market. That has been evident with the work he has done at WVVA throughout his tenure,” said Ralph M. Oakley, president and CEO of Quincy Media, Inc.
