Scripps scooped up Owens from Fuse last spring, and she got right to work expanding the company’s reach in the digital arena. Owens would like to see larger representation of women in ad sales, technology and operations. “Often people who have had broader experience running a business rise to the top of senior management, which could be one reason there are so few women at the very top of organizations,” she notes. Will WICT exist in 30 years? Owens believes so, but hopes “equal opportunity and equal pay are off the agenda and we will be ensuring women’s perspective is properly represented in all forms of media.”
