Linda Yaccarino’s 11th-Hour Jump To Twitter Gets Shoutouts From NBCUniversal Execs Mark Lazarus And Mark Marshall At Upfront
just last week, Lazarus opened the event with self-effacing humor.
After Yaccarino’s surprise departure on the eve of the upfront, Mark Marshall was named Yaccarino’s interim replacement, reporting to Lazarus. A strong round of applause greeted Marshall when he walked onstage to deliver the final remarks before pop star Nick Jonas closed the show. He called it “an absolute honor and a bit humbling” to be standing there given he hadn’t expected to as of just three days ago. Applause rippled through the hall again when he asked for the TelePromTer to scroll forward. “Perfect,” he quipped. “First year.”
