She will address the changes in a virtual all-hands meeting on Tuesday. Of the approach to sports, Levin wrote, “This expanded team, which will now include all Olympic sales as well as our Sports vertical, will leverage a unified strategy across all sports assets to maximize revenue from our properties and will be led by Peter Lazarus.” In 2022, Lazarus was promoted to the lead role overseeing sports advertising, while Lovinger was shifted into an Olympics-centric post.
