Entravision Communications has parted ways with its longtime President and Chief Operating Officer Jeff Liberman, ending a remarkable nearly 26-year tenure at the Spanish-language media company, according to recent reports and an SEC filing. The departure, described as abrupt in industry coverage, was confirmed by an Entravision spokesperson and marks the close of one of the longest executive runs in U.S. Hispanic radio and media.
Liberman was notified this week that his employment was ending, capping a career with Entravision that began in 2000. His LinkedIn profile lists his role as running through February 2026, aligning with the timing of the news. Liberman joined Entravision when it acquired Latin Communications Group, where he had grown operations from two radio stations to 17 across California, Colorado, New Mexico, and Washington, D.C. He quickly rose to President of Entravision's Radio Division, steering it through national expansion and digital shifts.

He advanced to Chief Operating Officer in 2012 and was named President and COO in 2017. In that capacity, he oversaw 98 media properties across 31 offices nationwide—including TV affiliates with Fox, The CW, and Univision, plus dozens of Spanish-language radio stations.
Among his notable initiatives were centralizing TV master control operations (saving $1.5 million annually), migrating traffic systems to the cloud for better cybersecurity, launching podcasts and radio programs to drive digital audio growth, directing over 270 weekly newscasts, and supporting digital division expansion through acquisitions and the hiring of a Chief Digital Officer.
Liberman's career in Spanish-language broadcasting dated back to 1974, making his exit a significant transition for Entravision as it navigates an evolving media landscape. No immediate details on a successor or reasons for the separation beyond the parting of ways were specified in public announcements.
