New York State Broadcasters Association president David Donovan reveals that he will be stepping down from his post at the end of 2026 after 15 years leading the organization. NYSBA says that Donovan will continue to lead its government relations efforts. That said, the organization is forming a search committee to begin the process of selecting a new
president. NYSBA chairman Chris Musial states, “David is doing an outstanding job, but he believes the time has come to turn over management of the Association to the next generation. The Board of Directors is delighted he will continue to lead our lobbying efforts in Albany and Washington. The NYSBA Board and Executive Search Committee look forward to advancing the important work of Broadcasters on Multiple Platforms as we begin this search.” Donovan comments, “It has been a great run. Our goal is to bring someone on board earlier in the year to have a smooth transition. NYSBA has an outstanding Board of Directors and the best staff of any association in America.” Resumes will be accepted until February 28, 2026. See the job description here.
