Ex-Comcast Exec Joins TelAmerica

Roger Sverdlik, who left Comcast Cable Communications Inc. last fall as
senior vice president of ad sales, has joined TelAmerica Media Inc. as executive
VP.

Philadelphia-based Sverdlik will oversee strategy and national ad sales for

The former offers avails in a cooperative of 10 major cable companies

as well as forthcoming offices in Chicago, Los Angeles and Detroit, TelAmerica
CEO Lance Funston said.
