The forthcoming cable network from Oprah Winfrey named Christina Norman, a former MTV president, to be chief executive on Thursday, concluding a search that started in earnest more than a year ago.
The appointment has been the biggest missing piece for OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network, which was first announced 12 months ago. A joint venture of Ms. Winfrey’s Harpo Productions and Discovery Communications, the network will replace the Discovery Health Channel, which is available in about 70 million households. A premiere date has not been set.
