CLICKRADIO DOESN’T CLICK
WITH WILLIAMS
President/CEO Tires Of Questions About Whether He Was Ready For Some Football
ClickRadio President/CEO Hank Williams has stepped down from his post at the net radio outfit. Williams will stay on as co-chairman and provide technology strategy.
A software developer, Williams co-founded Cybersonic, which helped the major labels launch webcasts. Williams utilized his knowledge when co-creating ClickRadio in 1998.
During its run, ClickRadio has struck agreements with labels including Warner Music Group, BMG, Koch, Alligator and Tommy Boy.
Co-founder David Benjamin will serve as interim CEO until the position is filled. Williams, meanwhile, is reportedly mapping out a tour of honky-tonks across the Bible Belt.
