CTV has named Wendy Freeman as the new president of CTV News, two weeks after Robert Hurst announced his retirement. Freeman, a 17-year veteran of the network, will become president on January 3. She has held the position of vice president and executive producer of CTV National News since 2001. "Wendy has been understudying this role for years. She will lead us into the next generation of news," Ivan Fecan, president and CEO of CTVglobemedia, said in a statement Wednesday.
Freeman said the job was a "dream come true."
"I look forward to working with Canada's best news team to explore new opportunities that will bring us even further into the digital age," she said.
"This is an exciting time for CTV News."
