Tom Bender was named senior vice president and general manager of Greater Media Interactive.
He had been the market manager for the company’s three Detroit-based properties since 1986, and continues to hold this position until a replacement is named.
Greater Media says Bender is responsible for changing the format of a failing adult contemporary station to become the first classic rock format station in the United States, WCSX(FM). In 1994, he managed the acquisition of WRIF(FM) Radio.
