Viacom Digital Boss Greg Clayman Headed to Rupert Murdoch’s iPad Newspaper

-- The Wall Street Journal's All Things Digital reported on August 22, 2010:

"Rupert Murdoch’s iPad-friendly digital newspaper doesn’t have a launch date or a name yet, but it is hiring.
News Corp. has tapped Greg Clayman, who runs digital distribution for Viacom, to run the new publication’s business operations, multiple sources tell me.

For some reason, News Corp. people (who also own this site), don’t like to use the word “newspaper” to describe their plans for the news…thing. But as earlier reports have detailed, the idea is to create a subscription-based digital news service, designed expressly for mobile platforms like Apple’s iPad and Google’s Android phones and upcoming tablets.

New York Post Executive Editor Jesse Angelo will oversee the service’s editorial role. And if you did call this thing a newspaper, you could call Clayman the publisher.

For now, Clayman’s old job will be handled by a group of his deputies, Viacom said in an internal memo announcing Clayman’s departure (but not his destination) last week."

I just had to comment, as I can't stand it any longer. I agree with the writer on June 5,2010 concerning your constant displays during a program. I have already quit watching "HOT IN CLEVELAND" as a result of this show being pushed down our throat with the constant pop-ups of the four laughing and acting stupid(very sickning)along with your TV Land logo on the bottom right hand side of the screen announcing 3,2,Season Finale of this dread awful show which is a poor excuse on trying to imitate the GOLDEN GIRLS, but not even in its league. Your pop-ups and logos make recording any show on this station impossible. Funny how you don't have your annoying ads/pop-ups during a commercial. Please stop this immediately. I know what station I'm watching, and I don't need to be reminded of what's on next, or when the last episode of a particular program is. I get a cable guide and use that as my source. TV LAND sure is not what it used to be.

Innerbeing in LA thinks too much of the media is owned by Jews? For Anti-semites anything owned by Jews is too much. Now go twitter Mel Gibson.

RE: TV Land
From 6 to 9 Pm it would be nice if you would replace Andy Griffith for a change with something like I Love Lucy, Good Times, Beverly Hillbillies, Sanford and Son, etc. Andy's been on so long, we're a little sick of him. Maybe if you put some or all of the above on for a while, we might be ready for Andy again. We don't want just anything, just family oriented shows, none of the garbage.

Folks, this is Viacom we're talking about. They laugh at comments concerning morality or what you may or may not want to hear. They heavily endorse our "change" fellow, and for you that voted for Mr Teleprompter, Viacom is just a pawn in the social engineering being done to our country. By the way, Char was so correct. NAFTA is where our financial problems began. Only a complete idiot goes with the sheeple crowd blatering about President Bush being at fault. Have a good laff Viacommy!

What was CMT/ Viacom thinking when they booked Kid Rock for the CMT Awards? I feel that the excessive drinking and smoking during the broadcast is a terrible example to set for our youth. It's a shame that the talented performers were overshadowed by an awful host, and poorly written jokes attempted to be passed of by other presenters.

We are sick and tired of your giant logo displays on our televisions. It interferes with our programming . It interferes with what we are trying to view on our screen and we do not appreciate this. If yoiu do not take these station ID logos off our screens we will not watch your channels and further more we will contact the advertisers and tell them we will not buy their products as long as they continue to advertise on your stations. You are infringing on our rights. We PAY for these stations and we are not paying for you to use our screen to advertise your logos and upcoming programs. That is what the channel guides are for. Do you think we are completely ignorant and cannot figure out what station we are on. STOP THIS AT ONCE. We are sick and tired of you infringning on our privacy and rights to view our programs without ads during programming. Again, if this does not stop then we will stop watching and stop buying any products that advertise with you. Americans are getting tired of being taken advantage of. Systematically more and more people are cancelling their cables because they are sick of you people taking advantage of us. Do you actually think we don't notice your giant logos.Enough ,fix it or we will.

Watch the Obamacrats try to gain about 10 million voters over night by giving amnesty and welfare to illegal aliens.

We will boycott the Superbowl this year. We will also be writing to all of the sponsors. Television is for families. We do not want our children brainwashed by religious nuts like "Focus on the Family". Wake up America. Google "which minority owns U.S. media".

On November 3, 2009, Viacom Inc. reported a 14% increase in operating income and a 24% rise in adjusted net earnings for the third quarter ended September 30, 2009, with growth in Filmed Entertainment and Media Networks.

The company released this statement:

During the third quarter 2009, Viacom revenues decreased 3% to $3.32 billion, primarily reflecting lower home entertainment and advertising sales, which more than offset increases in affiliate sales and theatrical revenues. The gain in operating income in the quarter was driven primarily by an $88 million increase in the Filmed Entertainment segment. Adjusted net earnings from continuing operations attributable to Viacom were $421 million, up 24% over the third quarter 2008 results, with adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.69, a 25% increase over the prior year's results.

Sumner M. Redstone, Executive Chairman of Viacom, said, "As we enter a period of economic recovery, Viacom is already beginning to reap the benefits of a highly focused and well executed strategy. With our strong brands and growing global footprint, we are well positioned to capitalize on future opportunities."

Funny they didn't mention the main owner of VIACOM

Sumner Redstone, can someone say this site is a front to cover the large amount of JEWISH media ownership in this country.

Pretty obvious if you ask me

On July 28, 2009, Viacom Inc. (NYSE:VIA) reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2009.

Revenues for the second quarter of 2009 totaled $3.30 billion, a 14% decline from $3.86 billion in the second quarter of 2008. This decrease reflects lower revenues in both the Media Networks and Filmed Entertainment segments as weak economic conditions continued to impact certain business sectors. Operating income declined 26% to $586 million primarily as a result of lower year-over-year revenues, which more than offset a $352 million net reduction in expenses in the quarter. Excluding the impact of Media Networks and Filmed Entertainment severance charges, adjusted operating income decreased 22% to $619 million.

Reported net earnings attributable to Viacom declined 32% versus a year ago to $277 million, or 27% on an adjusted basis. Excluding $0.03 in severance charges, adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS) were $0.49, a 23% decline versus the second quarter of 2008.

Sumner M. Redstone, Executive Chairman of Viacom, said, "As the leading pure-play content company, Viacom has the right portfolio of assets and the right vision to manage through this challenging climate while we continue to position ourselves for future growth."

For all you Bush Haters Maybe you need to learn the Truth about how things work. It takes 6years to see what the last President has done. Bill Clinton is the start of why we are in the mess we are in,look in the U.S. Arcrives if you don't belive me. He was happy about NAFTA he said in 1998 we will be in a better place in the Economy 10 years from now. Well the joke is on him.
Bush has had the worst things happen to him during his presidenciey. At least we were not attacked for the Second time. The war well some things we don't know about the government only tells us what they want
us to know. So before you say anything about Bush read the Arcrives. Blame is some on him yes but not all. Dem's are all about raising taxes and making laws and big lawsuits. They take more rights away everday. So when you have no rights left thank a Democrate. If you think they will keep our country safe ask the Service men and women who they would rather have a Democrate who lowerd their Hazard pay from $600 a month Extra to $200 i guess they feel their lives are only worth $200.
The news never reports any of that stuff they just report what they want to. Maybe if they told the truth about things people
would not be divided. Now we will see what the Obama is about I hope he does not have to go through all that Bush Did. What would you done, people got mad and said he was to slow to react well that is what his cabinet members are for, He was bashed for not acting fast enough on 9-11 When he did now he is a bad person well you can't have your cake and eat it too. I ask What would you have done. The media plays on people who don't read the Arcives and don't research things that are said, Well that is why we have the mess we have.

I was just watching "The Empire Strikes Back" when a commercial advertising an upcoming show with a "sexpert" who was exhibiting a sex toy was broadcasted.

You have the audacity to show this commerical while broadcasting "The Empire Strikes Back." A show in which you know will be watched by many families and children. This is simply shameful.

This is a bridge too far and I would request that you you remove this immediately.

2-9-2008 Re: Demand Coverage ( Press conference) Attn: Leslie Moonves & Sumner Redstone
I, Jesha Miller have Faxed Katie Couric & Sumner Redstone for coverage of my Petition to Impeach President Bush which is on Capital Hill awaiting to be taken to the Floor by Speaker-Nancy Pelosi. This is media bias & you have a responsibility to inform the public of corruption, a federal crime & the denial to the right of freedom by the U.S. Surpeme Court. I have executed my constitutional right # 925 to get this coverage but have been ignored. If I'm not contacted by 2-12-2008 I will file suit for refusing my constitutional right & aiding & abetting a criminal from justice.
