Turner Broadcasting System

Sports business executives know about the path David Levy has taken to become Turner Broadcasting president. Petruzzi has been with Levy the whole way. The media communications veteran joined Turner Sports in 2003 and was promoted to senior vice president and domestic communications officer in 2014, a position where he oversees the entertainment, sales and sports communications teams at TBS, TNT, truTV, Turner network sales and Turner Sports. A passionate advocate for Turner’s sports properties, Petruzzi has helped to manage Turner’s NBA, MLB and NCAA relationships over the past decade and a half.
