Dana Walden and Gary Newman are adding network chief to their collective résumés.
The move comes more than a month after Fox Broadcasting Chairman Kevin Reilly announced he'd be exiting a position he had held for seven years. Walden, who was widely suspected to get the gig in the days following Reilly's news, and her fellow 20th Century Fox TV chairman and CEO bring with them nearly 50 years of combined experience at the studio, during which time they have been intimately involved in such hits as The X-Files, Ally McBeal, 24, Family Guy and Glee. As part of the new arrangement, the pair will maintain oversight of the studio, too, and will report to Peter Rice.
