Katrina Cukaj

EVP
CNN Advertising Sales and Marketing

Even with some ratings challenges, Cukaj was able to find new advertising partners across multiple platforms, thanks partly to the launch of new CNN programming. Look for her to find more opportunities as CNN reinvigorates its programming lineup. In her view, Jeff Zucker joining CNN was the biggest story in cable this year. “It’s exciting to be a part of the organization right now, and to experience the positive reaction our clients have to his strategy,” she says.
