Moonves did take some time to praise radio during the conference. In a conference call with analysts, CBS CEO Les Moonves reports improvement in auto advertising along with higher retransmission revenues helped ameliorate some of the negative effects of the loss of political and the NBA lockout. The lack of political advertising during 2011 compared to the year prior and the NBA lockout are being blamed for the drop in revenue CBS experienced last year.

It truly is a matter of broadcasters helping broadcasters – in other words, giving back to the people of an industry that has given us such marvelous opportunities.” For more information on the Broadcasters Foundation of America, to make a donation, or learn how to apply for a grant, please contact them at 21, or visit CBS Corporation Revenue Down 3% Radio Division Down 5%. I strongly encourage everyone in talk radio and beyond to join this organization or at least send a donation. These are tough times and each and every one of us is vulnerable to crisis and disaster due to health issues or any other threats facing the simple condition of being human. According to TALKERS publisher Michael Harrison, “I have witnessed firsthand just how wonderful this organization is as it clearly makes a difference in the lives of broadcasters who have fallen on hard times and even tragic circumstances. The Foundation reaches out across the country to identify and provide an anonymous safety net in cases of critical illness, advanced age, death of a spouse, accident, and other serious misfortune.” There has been a notable outreach to talk radio by the Broadcasters Foundation in recent months and an accompanying surge of interest in its work by hosts and programmers around the country.
The charity describes its mission as “improving the quality of life and maintaining the personal dignity of men and women in the radio and television broadcast profession who find themselves in acute need. The Broadcasters Foundation of America provides assistance to broadcasters in need. Fox News chairman and CEO Roger Ailes will also be part of the program as a presenter. Emmy-winning host of “Inside Edition” Deborah Norville returns as host of the gala event at which Fox Television Stations president of station operations Dennis Swanson will be honored with the Golden Mike Award. The annual “Golden Mike Awards” to benefit the Broadcasters Foundation of America takes place in New York City on Monday, February 27 at the Plaza Hotel.

It happens to all of us once in a while, but we have to grow to a point as adults where we tell that little kid no!ĭave Ramsey is CEO of Ramsey Solutions. Your husband is asking a normal question, but he’s dangerously close to letting that immature little kid out. You’re never going to win with money if you can’t learn to delay pleasure.Įveryone has that little kid inside them, and that little kid wants everything he or she wants right now. This means getting out of mortgage debt as quickly as possible, too. The best way to build wealth and have a secure financial life is to stay away from debt. Depending on where you live, a good home can cost 10 to 20 times that much. This is an amount which, in my mind, is doable over the course of several months through determined saving and living on a budget. Plus, you can get a great, pre-owned car for $10,000 to $15,000. Cars go down in value, while traditional homes generally increase in value substantially over the years. I still recommend, however, setting aside as much as possible for a down payment before taking out a mortgage. A house is often the largest purchase in a person’s life, and one most people can’t achieve based solely on saving. I tolerate mortgage loans, as long as people use a 15-year, fixed-rate mortgage, with payments that are no more than a fourth of their monthly take-home pay.

He wants us to go ahead and finance the remainder since it’s a relatively small amount. We’re about $5,000 from our car fund goal, but my husband is getting impatient. We’re also setting aside a little each month to buy a newer car with cash later. We’re debt-free except for our home, and we’ll have our fully-funded emergency fund of three to six months of expenses, we’ve agreed on six months’ worth, saved up by the end of February.
