The CW’s Rob Tuck is the frontrunner to replace advertising sales head Bill Morningstar, who is expected to depart for the MLB Network, MediaWeek reports, citing unnamed sources. If Tuck does not take over, ad sales for The CW could fall under the oversight of the CBS sales department, the newspaper says. Tuck, who joined The WB in 1995, is currently executive VP of sales and planning for The CW, the newspaper notes.
