The National Association of Broadcasters has appointed two executives from Paramount and Entravision Media to its Television Board of Directors, the organization announced on Tuesday.

Makan Delrahim, the Chief Legal Officer at Paramount, and Entravision President Maria Martinez-Guzman were named to the board effective immediately, the NAB said in a statement.

Delrahim oversees legal, regulatory, compliance and public policy matters at Paramount, including oversight tied to its CBS broadcast network. He joined the company in October 2025 following a tenure as a partner at Latham & Watkins, where he advised on mergers, transactions and regulatory issues. Earlier in his career, Delrahim served as Assistant Attorney General for the U.S. Department of Justice’s Antitrust Division, where he led enforcement of federal competition laws.

At NAB, Delrahim will bring experience in antitrust policy and media regulation as broadcasters contend with ongoing consolidation, evolving distribution models and increased scrutiny from policymakers. He fills the board seat previously held by Keith Murphy.

Martinez-Guzman was appointed President of Entravision in 2026, where she oversees television and digital video programming along with local and national sales operations. She previously spent more than two decades at Univision, most recently serving as Executive Vice President of News, where she managed programming across the company’s daily news portfolio.

Her appointment adds operational and programming expertise to the NAB Television Board, particularly in Spanish-language media and audience engagement. Martinez-Guzman succeeds Jeff Liberman in the role.

The NAB is the main lobbying organization of the commercial radio and TV broadcasting industry. Over the past few years, the group has lobbied federal lawmakers and regulators for more-favorable legislation and rules requiring AM radio tuners in electric vehicles, a hard transition to the TV broadcast standard known as NextGen TV and looser broadcast radio and TV ownership restrictions.
