      CNN Worldwide appoints Rani Raad as global commercial strategy head

      CNN Worldwide appoints Rani Raad as global commercial strategy head
      ShareTweetPostEmail

      Effective immediately, Raad will report directly to Jeff Zucker, Chairman of WarnerMedia News and Sports & President of CNN Worldwide.

      CNN Worldwide has appointed Rani Raad as President, CNN Commercial, in a newly created global position to broaden the company’s new business streams.   

      By centralising the management and strategy of its commercial activity in one operation, CNN hopes to create a global approach to the way it assesses market needs, develops solutions and works with partners.

      Under the new role, Raad will work closely with WarnerMedia Sales and International on its CNN advertising and distribution activity, lead the international business through CNN International Commercial, optimise CNN Worldwide’s directly controlled revenue operations and maximise the commercial potential of development of new products.

      Raad, a CNN veteran of 22 years, started his career at the company in New York before holding a number of senior international roles with CNN and WarnerMedia. In 2013, Raad combined all business operations of CNN’s properties outside of the United States within the division CNN International Commercial (CNNIC), including advertising, sponsorship, content sales and licensing, out-of-home marketing and audiences and data.

      Commenting on the new appointment, Raad said: “I don’t think I have ever seen a time when CNN has been so influential, both in the US and internationally. An era of structural change in the media market, the increased demand for verified news and the economic impact of COVID-19 is fundamentally changing the way we need to work with our business partners. With our premium brand, sophisticated solutions and worldwide reach, it’s now more important than ever before that our business partners, wherever they are, have greater and faster access to CNN’s full suite of global capabilities.”

      Jeff Zucker, Chairman, WarnerMedia News and Sports & President, CNN Worldwide, remarked: “There has never been a more important time to be strategic and purposeful about revenue generation across the platforms of CNN Worldwide. By aligning Rani and his team more closely with the rest of the CNN organisation, there is no doubt it will make a big difference in our ability to find new ways of doing business and enhanced opportunities for our clients around the world.”
