Charlie Grisham Named GM of Scripp’s Omaha Station

Charlie Grisham has been named general manager and director of sales of KMTV, Scripps’ CBS affiliate in Omaha.

Grisham currently serves as general manager and director of sales at WRTV, Scripps’ ABC affiliate in Indianapolis. He’ll move over to KMTV following completion of the WRTV sale to Circle City Broadcasting, anticipated for early 2026.

Early in his career, he worked in Omaha-area radio and regional cable news while earning a degree in atmospheric sciences from Creighton University and completing Air Force ROTC at the University of Nebraska at Omaha. He later earned an MBA while serving on active duty.

“Charlie’s deep roots in Omaha and Nebraska give him a unique understanding of the people and the community KMTV serves,” said Kathleen Choal, regional vice president and general manager for Scripps. “His leadership experience at WRTV and across other successful local media stations will help our Omaha team continue creating trusted, impactful journalism that reflects the values of the region.”
