Cox's Fennell Departs: No official word from the company, but Cox EVP/CFO Brett Fennell has exited and been removed from the corporate website. Fennell joined CMG in 2014 (CAT 9/3/14) from sister company Manheim and retained his position following Apollo’s acquisition of Cox Media Group last year (CAT 8/15/19). Fennell had worked for CMG’s former parent company, Cox Enterprises, since 2002, and his exit follows Pres./CEO Kim Guthrie’s departure last month (CAT 5/6).
