Eastlan Ratings Hires Emilio Abdala as Director of MC&CS

Eastlan Ratings

Eastlan Ratings appoints Emilio Abdala to the newly created post of Director of Multi-Cultural & Christian Solutions. Abdala was previously an account manager at Arbitron and created plans for companies like Univision, Verizon Wireless and the MLS' Chicago Fire.

Eastlan President/CEO Mike Gould said, "Local radio is changing fast and Emilio brings a vital perspective. In most every local market, new Spanish language and faith-based stations are blossoming, but research services to help these broadcasters grow are seriously lacking. We are confident our new partnership with FMR Associates, coupled with Emilio's unique tool box, will allow us to help many of these previously overlooked broadcasters."
