SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Four incumbents and one new member were elected to the board of directors of The Associated Press in results announced Monday at the annual meeting of the news cooperative.
Re-elected to three-year terms were Burl Osborne, publisher emeritus of The Dallas Morning News, owned by Belo Corp.; Michael E. Reed, president and chief executive officer of Community Newspaper Holdings Inc.; William Dean Singleton, vice chairman and CEO of MediaNews Group Inc.; and H. Graham Woodlief, vice president of Media General Inc.
The new member is Dennis J. FitzSimons, chairman of Tribune Co., replacing Joe Hladky, chairman and publisher of the Gazette Co. of Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Hladky has served seven years as director and could not run for re-election to a three-year term because it would push him beyond the nine-year maximum specified in the AP bylaws. Hladky will remain on the board, however; on Saturday the board named him to one of six seats it can fill by appointment to two-year terms.
