Scott Bailey, who previously oversaw a group of sites for Time Warner’s Turner Sports Interactive, has been named senior vice president and general manager of Comcast.net, a newly created position overseeing the Web portal for the operator’s 12.4 million high-speed Internet subscribers.
Bailey will report to Comcast Interactive Media president Amy Banse. At Turner Sports, he was vice president and general manager for a group of Web sites including NASCAR.com, PGATour.com and PGA.com.
“Scott’s strong track record of developing, launching and managing sites will truly be an asset as Comcast.net and CIM continue to grow,” Banse said in a statement.
