Dennis Miller Resigns as CW Network President

Dennis Miller has stepped down as president of The CW network, surprising many as he had recently extended his contract through 2027. Brad Schwartz, currently the president of entertainment, is set to succeed him. During his tenure, Miller secured significant sports broadcasting rights, including LIV Golf and ACC basketball and football, which bolstered the network's ad sales. Nexstar, which acquired The CW in 2022, aims to make the network profitable by 2025 by shifting away from expensive scripted content to more cost-efficient programming, including live sports. The shakeup raises questions about the future direction of the network under Schwartz's leadership. As of now, Nexstar has not commented on the implications of this transition.
