Jim Martin, the president and CEO of Kroenke Sports & Entertainment for the last nine years, is retiring from his position, a source told The Denver Post.
Martin will step down at the end of business Tuesday, the source said, as KSE finds itself embroiled in a protracted dispute with two of Altitude Sports’ largest television distributors. Martin’s retirement ends a 15-year tenure with the company.
Martin and KSE COO Matt Hutchings have been heavily involved in negotiations with DirecTV, DISH Network and Comcast since Altitude’s contracts lapsed with the three carriers in late August.
