Michaels (real name Robert Roerigh) was ExecutiveVP for Research at
Clear Channel from April 2010 to September 2012. Previously, Bob was at
Arbitron for almost 25 years. He served
as Arbitron’s VP for Radio and TV Programming Services before leaving in April
2005.
While at Arbitron, Bob led 34 day-long Arbitron PD Seminars,
was Executive Editor of ‘PD News’, co-created the PD Advantage service, and
oversaw the redevelopment of the Arbitron Programmer's Package.
Earlier in his career, Michaels served in various roles in
local radio stations, including PD of 13Q in Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in the early
‘80s. Michaels’ TV sales experience was
with WGAL-TV. He was also closely with
non-com WITF in Harrisburg ,
Pa , where he assisted in many
on-air fund-raising projects.
Tom's Take: This is truly sad news at the end of the week. Bob used to attend our PD conferences when I was with Dame Media in Harrisburg, Pa. in the '90s. He was truly gracious with his time. He will be missed.
