LAFAYETTE, LA (NEWS 15) (March 10, 2025) – Jim Parker adds additional duties as Vice President / General Manager for Allen Media’s KADN / KLAF-TV (FOX/NBC/MyNetwork) in Lafayette, Louisiana.

He’ll continue to serve as Executive News Director for NEWS 15, a role he’s held since August, 2022. During that time he’s come to love Acadiana’s passion for food, drink, music, and culture – not to mention the friendliness of its people.

Jim brings 35+ years of broadcast industry experience to the GM position. He succeeds Nanette Lavergne, who is moving on to a new opportunity in local media.

“I’m very grateful to Nanette for all her support and to AMB President Chris Young for giving me the opportunity to lead this operation recognized by the Louisiana Association of Broadcasters for having the state’s best large market newscasts,” he said.
