Fox Ad Sales Chief Marianne Gambelli Retires, Jeff Collins Steps Up

Collins to Oversee Ad Sales Across All Fox Divisions Amid Industry Shift to Streaming

Marianne Gambelli, the president of ad sales at Fox Corp, is retiring and will be succeeded by Jeff Collins, the current executive vice president of ad sales for Fox News Media.
Collins will oversee ad sales across all Fox divisions, including Fox Entertainment, Tubi, Fox Sports, FS1, FS2, Fox Deportes, and Fox News Media.
Gambelli's retirement comes at a time when TV networks are grappling with uncertainty about future ad revenue, with advertisers increasingly shifting towards streaming video.
During Gambelli's tenure, Fox Sports broke the company's revenue records for a broadcast of the 2023 Super Bowl and showed new creativity by going after ad money that might normally have gone to Warner Bros. Discovery’s Food Network with a slate of cooking content from entrepreneur Gordon Ramsay.
Collins, who joined Fox in 2019 from Viant Technology, will face challenges in the coming months as competitors launch ad-supported tiers of their streaming services and as Fox News faces a glut of cheap supply from direct-response advertisers.
