    MUMBAI: US broadcaster Fox chairman of entertainment Kevin Reilly and COO Joe Earley have announced a restructuring and expansion of the network?s programming team designed to foster the company?s expanding programming efforts.

    Beginning immediately, the following leadership changes are in effect:

    • James Oh has been promoted to senior VP, current programming. In this role he will oversee production and creative coverage of all of Fox?s new and returning scripted series, including ?The Following?, ?Bones?, ?New Girl?, ?Raising Hope?, ?Glee?, and ?The Simpsons?. Oh will report to Earley and will assume the day-to-day management of the network?s entire current Programming team.
    • Shana C Waterman has been named senior VP, event series and multi-platform programming, a newly-created department within Fox dedicated to managing the network?s limited-run and digital programming initiatives. Waterman will commission and develop long-form event series for Fox, working closely with FX Productions, and separately will oversee the content in the network?s new multi-platform programming, including Animation Domination High-Def (ADHD), The Short-Com Comedy Hour (working title), WIGS and other digital-to-broadcast efforts. She will report to Reilly.
       

    In addition, Fox has hired Kiliaen Van Rensselaer as senior VP, Multi-Platform Programming. Previously News Corp senior VP, digital media Van Rensselaer will serve as the senior operational executive dedicated to Fox?s multi-platform programming and will work closely with Earley and Waterman to manage and grow that business.

    Reilly said, "These appointments are an investment in some of our top people to strengthen our core programming business and take strategic steps forward with alternative platforms to incubate talent and ideas.

    "With James - our ?go-to? Current exec for many years - heading up our Current team, Shana - a creative self-starter who has driven some of Fox?s most exciting initiatives - now heading up our Event Series and Multi-Platform efforts and Kiliaen - a key player from News Corp."
