Current TV Hires New Executive Vice President of Technology

Current TV continues to staff up. One day after Cenk Uygur took his online show to Current, the network has announced it’s hiring CNN and NBC vet Jason Odell to be its new executive vice president of technology. Odell will be in charge of IT, web engineering and broadcast engineering and will report directly to Current TV president David Bohrman.

Odell is the inventor of the hologram technology CNN used during its 2008 election coverage. Wonder if this means flying gadgets and gizmos are on the way to Current.
