Katz Media Group elevates PJ Stack (pictured far left) to Vice President of Political Sales and Kevin McTigue to Director of Political Sales within their Katz Digital Video division, effective immediately. These strategic promotions aim to bolster the company's capabilities in navigating the dynamic digital video landscape for political advertisers as the 2026 midterm elections approach.

Stack, a 15-year veteran at Katz, has progressed through various roles, starting from a Sales Assistant at Katz Television Group in 2010 to now leading political sales strategies at Katz Digital Video. "Katz Digital Video has grown tremendously under PJ's leadership in the political space over the past few cycles," remarked Trevor Heaton, President of Political Sales and Strategy at Katz. He praised Stack's understanding of the digital streaming TV ecosystem and his robust relationships across the political media community, which have been pivotal in establishing Katz as a leading platform for engaging voters through premium digital content, including sports.

Kevin McTigue, who joined Katz in 2022, brings over 17 years of political expertise to his new role. His extensive background includes positions such as Deputy Director for Independent Expenditures at the Democratic Governors Association and various campaign roles for notable political figures. Heaton lauded McTigue's comprehensive experience and deep-rooted connections in the political realm, noting, "Kevin is a respected resource throughout the political landscape and an invaluable asset to the Katz Political team. His client-side experience has brought invaluable insight and has been a big part of our growth."

Mark Gray, CEO of Katz Media Group, emphasized the strength and reliability of their political sales team, stating, "Katz has built the most experienced and trusted political sales team in the industry. With deep-rooted expertise across both broadcast and digital, our team delivers unmatched scale, strategy, and results for political advertisers." He further noted that as the media landscape continues to evolve, Katz remains the preferred partner for political campaigns aiming to connect with voters in meaningful and measurable ways.
