Cynthia Hudson has been appointed senior VP and GM of CNN en Español and Hispanic strategy for CNN/U.S. She was most recently chief creative officer and executive VP for Spanish Broadcasting System and managing director of Mega TV, SBS' rapidly-expanding entertainment channel.
For her new position, Hudson will relocate to Atlanta from Miami and report to Tony Maddox, executive VP and managing director of CNN International. SBS hadn't named a replacement at press time.
Under her stewardship, Mega TV grew from a local Miami television station to one that's carried nationally on DirecTV Mas as well as cable and broadcast in New York, Chicago, Dallas, Fresno, Puerto Rico, Palm Springs and other cities.
In her new position, Hudson will oversee "newsgathering, editorial content, programming, production, operations and personnel, of CNN en Español, CNN en Español RADIO and the recently launched CNNMexico.com," according to a CNN announcement.
