Susan Lyne is the CEO of Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc..

Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia is a publicly traded media company founded by Martha Stewart. The company provides content related to the home, cooking, gardening, crafts, holidays, weddings and childcare. Its operations include magazines, books, radio, electronic commerce and music publishing.

Martha Stewart Living operates a television segment and also a merchandising segment that designs packaging and other promotional materials. The Internet/Direct Commerce portion of the company promotes internet and catalog shopping.

All of the company's products are advertised using the 'Martha Stewart' brand. This became a source of serious concern in June 2003, when Stewart was indicted on securities fraud and obstruction of justice charges related to her sale of stock in the company ImClone Systems Inc.. On March 8, 2004 she was found guilty of all charges, and was sentenced to five months in prison and five months house arrest, along with a $30,000 fine.

Martha Stewart served her prison sentence at the Federal Corrections Camp in Alderson, West Virginia, then boarded a private jet to do 5 months of house arrest on her 153 acre, $16 million estate in Katonah, New York.

The publishing sector of the company accounts for more than half of company revenues. 2004 revenue was $187.40 million.

Just saw Martha's interview with Neil Cavito..Her comment of support for the idiotic Obama administration means I will never purchase any product bearing the Martha Stewart brand.

Martha Stewart issued a statement on October 16, 2009, evidently following some less kind words on the subject of Kmart and Sears: NEW YORK, Oct. 16 -- "Both Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia and I appreciate the long and productive relationship we have enjoyed with Kmart and Sears Holdings. Although we were not able to agree on terms that would have allowed us to continue working together, we wish our friends at Kmart and Sears Holdings all the best. To the extent my recent comments were taken by anyone to be inconsistent with this sentiment that was not my intent. We hope in particular for a strong performance for the Martha Stewart Everyday line of holiday ornaments and decorations for this upcoming holiday season," stated Martha Stewart, Founder of Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia.

On July 29, 2009, Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc. announced its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2009. The Company reported revenue for the second quarter of $57.0 million, reflecting the challenging print advertising and retail sales environment. Results overall benefited from strong digital advertising growth, higher broadcasting profits and reduced corporate expenses. Charles Koppelman, Executive Chairman and Principal Executive Officer, said, "MSLO is executing its business plan well in a tough economic environment. That is evidenced by 28% growth in Internet advertising revenue in the quarter compared to the same period last year as marketers respond to our popular online properties." Revenues were $57.0 million in the second quarter of 2009, compared to $77.1 million in the second quarter of 2008. Lower revenues primarily reflect declines in magazine advertising revenue during a challenging period for the publishing industry, as well as lower merchandising revenues compared with the same period last year largely due to the winding down of our Kmart relationship. The Company's Internet and Broadcasting segments witnessed solid performance during the quarter. Operating loss for the second quarter of 2009 was $(6.1) million, compared to operating income of $1.7 million for the second quarter of 2008. Included in the results is an impairment charge of $(5.5) million related to an equity investment. When the impairment charge recorded in the quarter is excluded, operating loss was $(0.6) million for the quarter.

My Martha Stewart Belmont patio glass table top just exploded for no reason where do I call to complain. It took 3 hrs. to clean up and still have tiny slivers of glass all over the deck and under it. Please let me know where I can contact someone. Thank you.
