On February 7, 2008, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) determined the amount of the cash bonuses for 2007 to be paid to our current named executive officers other than our current Chief Executive Officer and established the 2008 base salaries for these officers. The bonuses for 2007 were determined based upon the achievement of certain strategic objectives, including performance targets, as well as other subjective factors. The following table sets forth the 2007 salaries and cash bonuses paid to the following named executive officers as well as their approved base salaries for 2008:



Name	Principal Position	2007 Salary	2007 Bonus	2008 Salary
Scott M. Blumenthal	Executive Vice President Television	$375,000	$125,500	$386,250
Bart W. Catalane	Senior Vice President Chief Financial Officer	$250,000	$112,875	$257,500

Gregory M. Schmidt	Executive Vice President Digital Media	$400,000	$207,813	$412,000

We intend to file a Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose the 2007 cash bonus and the 2008 salary for Vincent L. Sadusky, our President and Chief Executive Officer, once such amounts are determined and approved by our Compensation Committee. Mr. Sadusky’s bonus is calculated based upon our annual, audited financial results which will be available at a later date in the first quarter of 2008.
