  • Money Love by Meadow Devor
    © 2011 Meadow DeVor www.meadowdevor.com [email protected] - for Brooke - I’d do it all again. Three times. But only if you come with me. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Most of the time, I skip over the acknowledgments section in a book. I just want to get to the part where the story is interesting. Or where the information is something that I want to learn. And, dear reader, this may very well be a boring section for you to read. But it is my favorite section to write. Because it’s about my people. My friends. My team. And I know that you probably don’t know these people. But you should. And that’s why I’m going to share a bit about them with you. Thank you to Holly - you’ve been there every step of the way. Through all of it. From the playground, to boyfriends, college, death, marriage, birth and divorce. You’ve seen me through more things than most people see in a lifetime. To Tina - my battle buddy. We’ve laid in the same muddy trench, protected each other from enemy fire, and have come back home stronger and better. Someday, we will sit around laughing. Swapping war stories with the younger moms. And we will look at each other. And smile. To James - thank you for waking me back up to adventure. Highway 20 rides, flea markets, bull rides and country music. Life wouldn’t be the same without you. To Kaitlyn - my niece, my friend. You’ve been my money muse, worthy opponent in the Rat Race, and oh So Money.

    Mike McVay & Tommy Page umulus’ October 2015 transition to new CEO Mary Berner inaugurated what looked to be a cultural transformation. Early reports employed words like “autonomy” and “local.” She was quoted saying, “Programming is the Coxygen of Cumulus.” Support for Country and Nash was indicated A Culture Of in an early visit to the company’s Nashville properties. But it was a company-wide webinar in December that left no doubt about Commitment how dramatic a shift she intends. At the forefront of the structural changes supporting this new culture was the creation of an Office of Programming co-led by SVP/Content & Programming Mike McVay. Concurrently, the company’s Tommy Page – whose career has ranged from recording artist to stops at Warner-Reprise (A&R and promotion), Billboard and Pandora – was named SVP/Brand Partnerships & Nash. Country Aircheck sat down with both executives in January for a deeper look at Berner’s vision, their roles in its implementation and what that means for Country radio and country music. Country Aircheck: Mike, you’re well known in the business, though maybe more for your work in other formats. What is your history with Country? Mike McVay: I was very lucky early in my career that then-Country WHN/ New York PD Ed Salamon was one of my mentors. Charlie Cook was his APD. By being in that stream of Ed’s kids, which included Joel Raab and Dene Hallam, I could not have avoided Country if I wanted to.
