By Sergio Ibarra

Warner Bros. Domestic Television Distribution has promoted Charlotte Koppe to vice president of station relations.

In her new position, Ms. Koppe will manage communications, marketing and scheduling for local affiliates related to their use of first-run series, off-network series and motion picture broadcasts. She also will supervise WBDTD’s clearance department and will help create sales strategies for syndicated content.

“Charlotte’s experience working on the local station level—along with her years of work on the broadcast network and program distributor sides—gives her the big-picture knowledge necessary to help us succeed in this larger role,” said Susan Kantor, senior VP of marketing for WBDTD and Telepictures.

Ms. Koppe will work closely with Ms. Kantor and with WBDTD Executive VP/General Sales Manager Rick Meril.

Koppe previously was director of affiliate marketing for WBDTD and worked on the launches of “The Tyra Banks Show” and “TMZ.” Before joining Warner Bros., she ran CJK Productions, an independent production company. She also worked at New World Entertainment, ABC Entertainment and Paramount Domestic Television.
