In a wide-ranging video Q&A at the iHeartRadio festival
in Las Vegas with Billboard Saturday night, John Sykes, Clear Channel president
of entertainment enterprises and Tom Poleman, Clear Channel President of
national programming platforms, indicated that they are in the planning stages
of producing a country music festival and a TV Awards show and will bring the
Jingle Ball to a much wider audience.
The IHeartRadio Music Festival will air Sept. 30 and Oct. 1
on The CW, marking the latest in a series of broadcasts Clear Channel signed
with the network in a multi-year pact earlier this year. At the time of the
deal’s announcement in May, Sykes said the company was “about six months out”
from announcing two other new franchises for a to-be-determined broadcast
partner.
