SiriusXM Names Anjali Sud CEO as Jennifer Witz Steps Down
SiriusXM has appointed Anjali Sud as chief executive officer, effective Jan. 1. Sud, currently the CEO of Tubi, succeeds Jennifer Witz, who is stepping down after nearly 25 years with the company, including approximately six years as CEO. Witz will remain with SiriusXM in an advisory capacity through the end of next year. Witz explained that with the company returning to revenue growth and generating strong free cash flow, the timing was right to transition leadership to Sud.
SiriusXM Chairman Greg Maffei said that Sud, as a member of the board, brings an intimate knowledge of the business and strategy. Maffei credited Witz for her work to strengthen the subscriber foundation and expand 360L in-car penetration. Prior to Tubi, Sud was CEO of Vimeo and previously held roles at Amazon and Time Warner.

Broadcasters Foundation expands college scholarship program
The Broadcasters Foundation of America is opening its need-based scholarship program to include students pursuing radio and TV careers regardless of whether they come from a broadcasting family. In addition to the original $10,000 scholarship reserved for a student from a broadcast family, BFOA will award six new scholarships of $2,500 each. This brings the total to seven annual awards valued at $25,000.
BFOA President Tim McCarthy said that expanding the program ensures that neither financial circumstances nor family background prevent promising students from pursuing a career in radio or TV. McCarthy noted that the future of broadcasting depends on attracting talented, creative people with fresh ideas. Applications for the scholarship program will open in early spring of 2027.

Vodafone plans to cut around 2,300 jobs in Germany
Vodafone plans to launch an accelerated restructuring programme to reduce costs, improve competitiveness and support sustainable growth. The telecommunications operator plans to cut approximately 2,300 jobs in Germany over the next two financial years. The company intends to simplify organizational structures by bringing sales and customer service closer together for both consumer and business customers. Additionally, the IT division will work more closely with commercial units to shorten decision-making processes and speed up the development of products and services.
The restructuring includes expanding the use of AI and automation to analyze network faults, manage advertising campaigns, and support customer service employees. Alongside these cost-saving measures, Vodafone plans to increase investment in AI, IT, fibre networks, digital services, and digital customer channels. It also intends to strengthen its position in fibre broadband and cloud and security services for business customers. Detailed discussions with employee representatives are scheduled to begin early next year.
