Spot Runner Loses Key Exec to Current Media

NEW YORK Spot Runner suffered another blow as Mark Rosenthal has departed to take the chief executive post at Current Media.
 
Rosenthal (pictured), a former executive at Interpublic Group and MTV, led Spot Runner’s Project Malibu initiative, a media-buying platform the once highly hyped company has been pinning its hopes on. Spot Runner in recent months has suffered rounds of layoffs and been hit with a lawsuit by investor WPP accusing its founders of operating a “pump and dump” scheme that enriched them while the company lost $80 million over two years.
