TYSONS, Va., September 18, 2024--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TEGNA Inc. (NYSE: TGNA) today announced that Lynn Beall, executive vice president and chief operating officer of media operations, will depart from TEGNA in mid-2025 after a significant transition period, enabling the company to benefit from her invaluable experience as it transitions to a new organizational structure.

Beall joined TEGNA (then Gannett Broadcasting) in 1988. She has held the EVP and COO position since 2017, overseeing TEGNA’s 64 stations; news and content strategy; revenue growth; and network, retransmission and affiliate relationships. Beall is currently vice chair of the National Association of Broadcasters Television Board and serves on the executive committee of the CBS Television Affiliates Association Board.

"Lynn Beall is an extraordinary leader who serves TEGNA with distinction every day. As those who know her are aware, there’s no stronger advocate and voice for our stations and partners than Lynn, and the results of her decades of service to TEGNA are unmatched," said Mike Steib, CEO. "I’m grateful for Lynn’s invaluable expertise and perspective as we begin the important work of thoughtfully evolving TEGNA’s strategy."

Beall said, "I am extremely proud that TEGNA has grown from 12 stations when I joined the company in 1988 to 64 stations today and that we have built a world-class team to operate the business. Over the transition period, I’ll be working with Mike and the entire TEGNA team to ensure we’re taking full advantage of opportunities to reach and serve our audiences and customers. TEGNA has a great foundation and even greater prospects ahead."
