The team will be focused on creating original content in music, sports, and talk content ranging across comedy, politics, and entertainment, for Pandora listeners, including a selection of SiriusXM content, and creating original Pandora content for the SiriusXM audience.
The experienced Pandora team will report to SiriusXM’s Chief Content Officer, Scott Greenstein, and includes the following industry leaders:
• Alex White, Pandora’s VP of Content and Programming
