Following CEO Mark Rosenthal's departure two weeks ago, Current TV co-founder Joel Hyatt has fully reclaimed the role he has held for the bulk of Current's history. Almost immediately, he and co-founder Al Gore picked their new programming guru — David Bohrman, a longtime TV executive who comes by way of CNN and whose resume includes prior stints at both ABC and NBC.
Bohrman will assume the role of President of Current TV, a position the network has never had before. He will report directly to Hyatt with those from programming, production, broadcast operations and tech all reporting to him.
