NBC's Executive Shuffle After Friday Bloodbath

NBC's Executive Shuffle After Friday Bloodbath

NBC has become -- to paraphrase one of the network's recent flops -- its own worst enemy.

The Peacock has been in a perpetual state of crisis for several years now -- blowing up its executive teams and repositioning its programming strategy, all while struggling to pull out of fourth place.

The latest chapter of this NBC saga was a doozy: The conglom ousted both Universal Media Studios topper Katherine Pope and NBC Entertainment exec VP Teri Weinberg on Friday in a pre-weekend Peacock bloodbath. Alternative topper Craig Plestis, who's been negotiating his exit for weeks, will also be out by the end of the year.
