CBS CONTINUES TO MAKE TOO MUCH DAMN MONEY.

From PR Newswire

"CBS's strategy of producing and distributing industry-leading content around the world and across multiple platforms continues to pay off," said Sumner Redstone, Executive Chairman, CBS Corporation. "Our programming gets stronger every year, and our financial performance grows more and more robust. I am proud of the efforts of Leslie and his team, and I am certain CBS will continue to be a powerhouse throughout this year and beyond."


"2011 was a record year for CBS, and we're confident 2012 will be even better," said Leslie Moonves, President and Chief Executive Officer, CBS Corporation. "In the fourth quarter, margins continued to expand, and EPS continued to grow. And we've recently taken strategic steps to accelerate our growth in what we see as an improving marketplace. We've reached another key retransmission agreement, and we've extended our NFL contract well into the future. In addition, the performance of the CBS Television Network in the first half of this season was the industry's best in decades. Plus, as the election season progresses and the automotive rebound continues, our local businesses will continue to improve. What's particularly exciting, however, is our ability to capitalize on the fundamental changes in our business model, meaning that the ways we get paid for our content are becoming more lucrative all the time. As our momentum builds and our revenue mix becomes more steady and recurring, we are positioned to enhance margins, drive earnings, and return significant value to our shareholders for many years to come."

Revenues were $3.78 billion for the fourth quarter of 2011 compared with $3.90 billion for the fourth quarter of 2010, which included the second-cycle syndication sale of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation and significant political advertising. Revenues in 2011 benefited from the Company's new digital streaming agreements and higher affiliate and subscription fees, including retransmission revenues.

Full year 2011 revenues of $14.25 billion increased 1% from the prior year, led by growth in higher-margin revenues, including a 6% rise in content licensing and distribution revenues, which were driven by new digital streaming agreements; a 9% increase in affiliate and subscription fee revenues; and growth in underlying advertising revenues. Comparability of revenues for 2011 was affected by the benefits to 2010 from CBS Television Network's broadcast of Super Bowl XLIV and significant political advertising revenues for midterm elections, as well as the new programming agreement for the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Championship ("NCAA Tournament"), which resulted in lower revenues but higher profits for 2011.

THE LATE BERNIE MAC- GETS RETROSPECTIVE ON COMEDY CENTRAL!

From Comedy Central




-- An Original King of Comedy is set to be saluted when the World Premiere of "'I Ain't Scared Of You' A Tribute To Bernie Mac" debuts on COMEDY CENTRAL Sunday, February 19 at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT.

One of the brightest and most influential comics to ever walk onto a stage is honored with a documentary that is as unpredictable as the man himself. "'I Ain't Scared Of You' A Tribute To Bernie Mac" follows the development of Mac's unique performance style and his rise to fame. A tireless perfectionist, Mac's comedy began in small backroom comedy clubs in Chicago and grew to break through barriers making him an iconic figure in the entertainment world. The tribute unearths early footage and never-before-seen performances in addition to his better-known work, including the Kings of Comedy Tour, "The Bernie Mac Show" and several of his feature films, along with fascinating behind-the-scenes memories.

Bernie Mac, who passed away in 2008, won over the audience with his very first appearance on "Def Comedy Jam," when he took the microphone and exclaimed to the crowd "I Ain't Scared of You!" It was his sharp-tongued humor, mastered in the streets of Chicago, that had people rolling in the aisles, but it was Mac's sly smile and warm wit that kept them coming back.

"'I Ain't Scared Of You' A Tribute To Bernie Mac" features exclusive interviews with his co-stars, colleagues, friends and family including Anthony Anderson, Tom Arnold, Angela Bassett, Bill Bellamy, Cedric the Entertainer, Don Cheadle, Cameron Diaz, Mike Epps, Andy Garcia, D.L. Hughley, Warren Hutcherson, Samuel L. Jackson, Ali LeRoi, Rhonda McCullough, Je'Niece McCullough, Carl Reiner, Chris Rock, Zoe Saldana, Kellita Smith, Steven Soderbergh, Joe Torry and Camille Winbush.

Bernie's beloved and dedicated widow, Rhonda McCullough, played a huge role in the inception and production of "'I Ain't Scared Of You' A Tribute To Bernie Mac." Rhonda McCullough supplied footage and told the story of her life with Mac: how they met, how she always supported him and how strongly they loved one another. Mac's daughter, Je'Niece McCullough, conducted many of the interviews in the special with each story contributing to the picture of Mac as an exceptional artist, father and friend.

"'I Ain't Scared of You' A Tribute to Bernie Mac" was directed by comedy film maker Robert Small ("Back from Hell: A Tribute to Sam Kinison") and executive produced by Al Hassas, Rhonda McCullough, and Small.

Mac's legacy lives on through the Bernie Mac Foundation. Mac founded the foundation in 2007 to bring awareness to Sarcoidosis and to support research of the disease. The foundation was a true passion project for Mac, who was diagnosed with Sarcoidosis when he was 28 years old. More information on the foundation can be found on www.berniemacfoundation.org. A portion of the proceeds of the DVD sales of "'I Ain't Scared Of You' A Tribute To Bernie Mac" will benefit The Bernie Mac Foundation.

WARMED OVER NEWS-ARE THE BIG TV NETWORKS' ON-DEMAND SHOWS, FORCING YOU TO WATCH THEIR COMMERCIALS?


It looks like the networks have finally found a way around making viewers notice their ads, by disabling the fast forward key on the remote control- altogether.

Whenever you order a show on NBC,you are NOW warned at the beginning. the fast forward mode will not work with this show. ABC and FOX recently added their show to the listings, and now promote this same message. Only CBS (for now) has the fewest ads and will allow you to fast forward any part of the programs.

Time Warner cable subscribers have been given no reason, for why they can't use the fast forward key. The networks are keeping very quiet, about the new revelation for viewers. If something isn't done by viewers, this could infect some affect cable channel aligned with their sister networks (USA, MTV,Lifetime, FX;etc.) Will viewers have to go to Congress to get their fast forward buttons back? What's next, the off button?

YOU TUBE CENSORS WATERBOARDING MOMENT - IN NEW MOVIE: THE LAST WAR CRIME.
From PR Newswire

LOS ANGELES,-- Though still not even in official release, the writer and director of "The Last War Crime" says that YouTube is already trying to suppress the movie, which is a new full-length feature film about indicting Dick Cheney for torture. The movie's writer and director, who goes by the name of The Pen, asks, "And isn't that something billions of people want to see?" But, says The Pen, YouTube does not want their visitors to see the preview clip of the waterboarding scene from the movie, for the purported reason that it contains nudity, or is otherwise sexually provocative. And a protest is mobilizing against this accusation.



"That's ridiculous," exclaims Pen. "There is no actual nudity in it ... none. The actor playing the detainee wore a swimmer's style bathing suit the entire time, and we positioned the female interrogator character so view of his midriff was blocked entirely in any case. And if they're complaining this scene is sexually suggestive, they need to ban half the rest of the movies on their site."



The purpose of the scene in the movie is to condemn waterboarding, long recognized to be a form of torture unequivocally. According to The Pen, the scene also serves to remind everyone that the sexual taunting of helpless and mostly innocent captives, in places like Abu Ghraib, was a deliberate part of a de facto program to degrade people in violation of the Geneva Conventions. But YouTube makes no provision on their site to challenge their own unilateral dictates.



Says Pen, "Shame on YouTube for censoring this clip, which we believe, and we think you will agree, is part of an important cultural and artistic statement of social commentary. We have already submitted the movie to the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, the Cinequest Film Festival, the Ann Arbor Film Festival, SXSW, the Cleveland International Film Festival, the Tribeca Film Festival, and the San Francisco International Film Festival, seven of the top breakout venues for serious works of new film art."



Pen continues, "And shame on YouTube further for deleting our waterboarding scene in such a summary and authoritarian manner. We had to build our own video server to do it, but people can now again see the clip for themselves on our new website."



http://www.lastwarcrime.com



On the same web page is an action form configured to automatically send protests to YouTube. And Pen is asking everyone to submit this form to send their own personal messages of complaint. Pen is demanding that YouTube immediately restore the wrongfully deleted waterboarding scene from "The Last War Crime" movie, and put in place an accessible review process so nothing like this can ever happen again. Hoping thousands of people will join with him, Pen suggests, "Maybe that will start to get YouTube's attention."

CELEBRITY Q AND A-
KATY PERRY: GENEROUS BITCH!
-Beverly Hills,CA

Last night at The Groove, Singer Katy Perry had stopped by to perform- at the freezing Al fresco mall. The stage was set,the spotlights were on, and the crowd waited with Glee, listening to her latest hits, like Firework and Last Friday Night.

Freeze was the optimal word,as the prickly artist decided, it was too cold to sing in the windy and chilly environment. Still, Russell Brand's better half decided on the fly- to sign auto graphs for her fans.

Unfortunately,there was no planning to this and the songstress was mobbed in a 360 fashion, with only a couple of suit and tie security guard for protection.

This reporter wanted an autograph from the pink pixie songbird,too. So, against better judgement, he went into the crowd with cell camera in hand and slowly made his way toward busty destiny.

As the fans screamed "I love you, Katy" and "You're the best Katy!,"...I became angry with being crushed on every side by people and watched a guy who tripped to floor and almost got trampled by the teen girls around him.

So, I said jokingly, "Bring more security with you Katy!" and got a brief laugh. Katy was singing away and responded "Hey you, in the black jacket. My security is right there.So, watch it!"

I felt she was being a bit of a bitch and I continued, "Next time, get a table (for signing) and have them (the fans) form a line.This is Ridiculous." Another round of agreeing laughs broke, from the crew. Katy flashed an icy smile and said,"Maybe next time, I have them (security) look for you."

After a few minutes, Katy signed my copy of AFTRA magazine (it was all I had to use.) Perry said, "AFTRA magazine? I don't know what this is,but I'll sign it." I told her Thank You and got the hell outta there. Then, she yelled" I like your website,even though you called my husband Skeletor, last week."

Note: Video footage was TOO grainy and scratchy sounding to use.
IT COSTS BIG BUCKS TO PROTECT THESE SPEARS.
