network executive
Channel decision maker
A network executive is a senior decision-maker at a television or radio broadcasting company, responsible for programming, scheduling, and content approval.
The term often carries connotations of corporate interference in creative work—writers and producers blame network executives for canceling beloved shows or demanding unwelcome changes: The network executives killed the pilot before it had a chance.
