Bill Lord promoted to VP/GM at WJLA and NewsChannel 8

Bill Lord (WJLA - WJLA) WJLA and NewsChannel 8 station manager Bill Lord has been promoted to vice president and general manager, overseeing both news operations.

The promotion — more of a change in title than in day-to-day responsibilities — comes about 10 months after the Allbritton-owned local site TBD.com underwent a major reorganization, and Lord was put in charge of all Allbritton’s local media properties.

Lord has been station manager for the past eight years, previously serving as WJLA vice president of news.
