OTTER APPOINTS FORMER TELEVISION
EXECUTIVE TO LEAD IDAHO LOTTERY

(BOISE) – Governor C.L. “Butch” Otter today appointed Jeff Anderson, who previously ran Idaho’s two largest CBS television affiliates, to be the new director of the Idaho Lottery.

Anderson, a nearly three-decade veteran of the broadcast industry, is former vice president and general manager for KBCI-TV in Boise and KIDK-TV in Idaho Falls. His career has included senior management as well as national sales and marketing positions.

“Jeff brings to this new job a wealth of experience in management and promotion. He knows how to run a business effectively, efficiently and in the glare of public scrutiny. Those all are important qualities that I want on my team,” Otter said. “Along with his record of community involvement and commitment to Idaho, he’s a great choice for Lottery director.”
