Now that Jeff Zucker has gotten Bob Wright's old job as CEO of NBC Universal (formal announcement expected later this week), there will be some other shuffling within senior management ranks. Marc Graboff is expected to oversee all of the network's West Coast operations (he already plays a big role in network and studio operations), while NBC entertainment president Kevin Reilly is close to renewing his contract - despite rumblings in recent months that his job was in jeopardy. Variety reports that Zucker will probably not replace himself as head of NBC Universal Television. That means the news and sports divisions are expected to continue reporting to him.
