<\/a> Katherine Green<\/p><\/div>\n

Citing the \u201cseemingly endless wheel of travel\u201d her job entailed, Katherine Green has called it quits after seven months as senior vice president of news for Tribune Media.<\/a><\/p>\n

A Tribune Media spokesman confirmed that Green resigned from the company, where she was responsible for overseeing news production and news operations for 42 television stations, including WGN-Channel 9<\/a> in Chicago. No replacement has been named.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the second time in recent years Green has cited family reasons for relinquishing a position. In November 2013 she stepped down<\/a> as senior vice president and managing editor of HLN Network \u201cto be a full-time mom\u201d before the arrival of her second child.<\/p>\n

\u201cSometimes professional priorities collide with personal priorities,\u201d Green wrote in a memo posted Saturday by FTVLive.com.<\/a>\u00a0\u201cThat is the case with the role I occupy at Tribune.\u00a0 The seemingly endless wheel of travel has created a difficult situation for me and for my family.\u00a0 I am not one to compromise on what I hold important and this position is causing me to compromise far too often.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the time of Green\u2019s appointment<\/a> last May, Larry Wert, president of broadcast media for Tribune Media, called her \u201ca visionary leader whose background in local broadcasting and news programming will bring value to our station\u2019s broadcast and digital newsrooms.\u201d<\/p>\n

Before joining HLN in 2011, Green had spent three years as senior vice president and general manager of CNN International Network. She previously was news director at WTTG-TV, the Fox-owned station in Washington, D.C., and WBAL-TV, the NBC affiliate in Baltimore, and was a producer at stations in New York, Miami and Tampa, Florida.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was not an easy decision,\u201d Green told colleagues of her decision to leave.\u00a0\u201cThere are some very good people within Tribune, creating great news programming in a challenging environment.\u00a0 I truly enjoyed working with you.\u00a0 I wish you the very best of luck.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
