Kapugi, who joined Tribune Interactive in 2008, will be responsible for all aspects of the operations of the company’s publishing, broadcasting and interactive websites. Most recently, Kapugi served as senior vice president/representation for Tribune Interactive.
“Jeff is an important player on our leadership team and an essential part of our future,” said Marc Chase, president of Tribune Interactive. “He’s been driving change efforts for the last two years, churning the pot and keeping us focused on operating effectively and efficiently.”
“We have an incredible opportunity to take the media industry to the next level and I’m excited to help make it happen,” said Kapugi. “My focus will be on implementing innovative efficiencies while maintaining a strong sense of organization.”
Kapugi will replace Nick Cory as chief operating officer.
