The Television Academy’s board of governors has voted vice chairman Frank Scherma to become its new chairman and CEO, a post he will take over from the outgoing Hayma Washington. The election was held Thursday night at a board meeting at which the TV Academy’s annual officer elections were also held.
Scherma, the president of RadicalMedia whose producer credits include music documentaries, Errol Morris’ The Fog of War, Broadway’s Shrek the Musical and IFC TV’s Stan Against Evil, was the lone candidate to step forward by the deadline when Washington said in October he would not seek a second term.

The incoming chairman will serve a two-year term beginning January 1, 2019. Additional incoming officers elected Thursday include Steve Venezia, Vice Chair; Tim Gibbons, Second Vice Chair; Sharon Lieblein, Secretary; Allison Binder, Treasurer; and Mitch Waldow,...

Celtic recorded a comfortable victory at Parkhead as they dominated the visitors in the second half with a Gary Hooper inspired performance. The English striker got two goals and two assists – for Scott Brown and James Forrest – as Celtic ran out 4-0 winners. County went into the match in poor form as they hadn’t won in their last six Spl outings. Their last victory came on 3 November against Aberdeen. Celtic, on the other hand, were in excellent form having won their last four league matches. Despite the large score line County played quite well throughout the match and had their finishing been more clinical could have troubled the home side.
Celtic lined up in a 4-3-3 with Victor Wanyama sitting in behind the two central midfielders and Gary Hooper playing in a false number 9 role behind the two wide-forwards. Celtic made two changes to the side that beat St.
