Gray Television said it promoted Liz Knight to general manager of WALB-WGCW Albany, Georgia.

Knight grew up in southwest Georgia watching WALB, Gray said. 

She had served as general sales manager of WALB, an NBC affiliate, WGCW, a The CW station, and WTSG, a Telemundo affiliate, for the past five years. 

She succeeds Bruce Austin, who moved to Gray’s Knoxville stations late last year.
