Letter from the President and CEO

Looking back, the impact of CBS Corporation’s efforts and commitment to community outreach, public service announcements, responsible programming and diversity is profound. Like a simple drop of water, the ripple effect of these efforts spreads far beyond the initial impact. For the last four years, CBS has published our Social Responsibility Report, providing a snapshot of how CBS businesses across the company honored the Corporation’s commitment and impacted the communities we serve; this commitment is at the core of what it means to be a public trust. Issuing this annual report is our way of providing a sampling of the good work CBS has done throughout the country on both a national and local level, while at the same time reminding us of the responsibility that comes with being a global mass media company. In recent years, Americans have seen a heightened awareness of diversity issues, gender and race relations as well as debate over how to protect the environment. Although our Corporation is comprised of many separate businesses, we were united in our commitment to the public's interest in each of these areas. From news coverage to raising awareness, funds and resources, the Corporation works together with the larger community to improve the greater good. I am proud of these continued efforts and humbly invite you to thumb through the pages of this report to begin to get a sense of the Corporation's positive role as well as some of the contributions we have made to communities across this remarkable country. Sincerely, Leslie Moonves

CBS Television Network The CBS Television Network is dedicated to its long tradition of community service, diversity, informative programming and accessible media. Over the airwaves and in the community, our dedication is evident in all our endeavors from public service announcements (PSAs) to program content and beyond. It's in the airtime we donate to causes and non-profit organizations, and in the talents and resources we contribute in creating PSAs with our stars. It is also reflected in the personal time we donate to volunteer. In these ways and more, we are proud of the caring role we play in our audiences' lives. As part of the CBS Television Network's commitment to social responsibility and public outreach, it implemented two very important programs designed to educate, inform and break down barriers: CBS Cares and CBS Diversity. The CBS Cares campaign, launched in 2000 as an outgrowth of CBS's longstanding commitment to public service, consists of on-air PSAs and the CBSCares.tv website, where viewers can access valuable information on different health and social causes, including in the form of in-depth interviews with some of the leaders in the relevant fields. In 2007, the CBS Television Network scheduled PSAs worth over $200 million about important issues such as HIV/AIDS, mental health, diversity, and neglected and abused children. A key part of this commitment was and continues to be the CBS Cares campaign, which is supervised by the Program Practices Department in New York.

CBS Diversity, under the leadership of Josie Thomas, Senior Vice President, Diversity, spearheads the network's on-going commitment to providing equal opportunities for all. The department maintains regular dialogue between CBS management and representatives of various ethnic groups to ensure transparency and progress in raising the profile of members of diverse communities in all aspects of our business. Through its CBS Diversity department, the Network continued to be at the forefront of making diversity a reality through a wide array of workshops, talent showcases and internships designed to bring more minorities into the creative process, and to create opportunities where they may not have existed before. In addition to initiatives that provide training and access for writers and directors, CBS Diversity sponsors showcases with leading theatre companies SAG and AFTRA designed to spotlight emerging talent. CBS Diversity also conducts seminars and workshops for actors and writers designed to help them hone the skills they need to help them attain employment. The department works with senior management to create and implement initiatives designed to improve outreach to diverse suppliers and professional service providers. In addition, CBS Diversity actively partners with organizations that have both a community and national scope. Reflecting the Corporation’s commitment to diversity, CBS Sourcing seeks the widest possible range of suppliers by actively encourage bids from eligible and qualified vendors who are owned by historically underutilized populations (which presently include ethnic minorities, women, people with disabilities and veterans). In front of the camera, CBS Television remained steadfast in its commitment to use our power as a media outlet to bring important issues and causes to light through our news, public affairs and entertainment programming. In addition to providing closed-captioning for the hearing impaired, CBS Television voluntarily provided over 4 hours per week of programming that was video described for the visually impaired.

CBS Cares

At the heart of CBS's public service commitment is the multiple awardwinning CBS Cares campaign, which consists of PSAs created by CBS and featuring talent from a wide array of programming. Development of CBS Cares is supervised by the Program Practices Department in New York, which works with the Promotions Department. With Network PSAs as its fulcrum, CBS Cares has grown into a multimedia project involving many areas and talents at CBS: Entertainment, News, Sports, Digital Media, Radio, Communications and Marketing. For a third consecutive year, CBS Cares won the Entertainment Industries Council Prism Award for best exemplifying the accurate depiction of drug, alcohol & tobacco use and addiction, and mental health issues in a community service project. This marks the fifth Prism Award for CBS Cares.

While there are some core causes that have been addressed for years, CBS Cares is also committed to looking for under-served causes where we believe that the resources and talents within CBS can make a difference. The starting point for every PSA--before scripting begins--is close consultation with experts on the frontline of each field to learn what messages they feel are the most important to convey. CBS Cares then partners with well-known personalities, such as Mike Wallace and Katie Couric, to help the message reach a larger audience. CBS Cares Highlights for 2007 Stroke PSAs: CBS Cares produced the first-ever Network PSA campaign on strokes. Partnering with the National Stroke Association, these PSAs focus on issues surrounding speed of treatment, risk factors, and gender and race differences. CBS Cares Radio Show: Hosted by Charles Osgood, this CBS Cares show featured an interview with the National Institutes of Health Director, Elias Zerhouni, M.D. Dr. Zerhouni leads the nation’s medical research agency and oversees the NIH’s 27 Institutes and Centers with more than 18,000 employees and a fiscal year 2007 budget of $29.2 billion. California Wildfire PSAs: CBS Cares in collaboration with the Red Cross produced PSAs featuring William Petersen (CSI:), Jimmy Smits (Cane), and Jennifer Love Hewitt (Ghost Whisperer), urging viewers to make a donation to the Red Cross to combat the devastating wildfires that swept across Southern California in the Fall. CASA/CSI: eBay Auction: CBS Cares in partnership with CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) and CSI: held an auction of a CSI: prop: a model of the office of Gil Grissom, William Petersen’s character on the show. All proceeds from the eBay auction went to CASA, a non-profit organization dedicated to mentoring and helping abused and neglected children. HIV/AIDS PSAs: CBS Cares produced new HIV/AIDS messages featuring Dr. David Ho, world renowned AIDS researcher, who invented the triple drug cocktail which made AIDS treatable. Dr. Ho was also TIME magazine’s Man of the Year in 1996. These PSAs focus primarily on issues of discrimination and stigma, as well as the viability of a vaccine. CBS Cares also produced HIV/AIDS PSAs with Hector Elizondo of Cane, which were the first-ever Network PSAs to tackle the issue of HIV and Seniors. Martin Luther King Jr. PSAs: Originated in 2007, these PSAs featured Congressman John Lewis of Georgia, one of the key figures in the civil rights movement. These PSAs, which included the website of The King Center (thekingcenter.org), honor the life and legacy of Dr. King.

Each of the elements described below offers a unique approach to professional relationship-building and career development in Hollywood. 1.

The show worked in conjunction with the American Humane Society to ensure that no dogs were harmed during filming.

She was ultimately murdered by a homeless man who faultily believed she was stealing from him.

Her loving widower father simply wants her to fit in and sends her off to a facility for girls with “gender identity disorder” at the school principal’s suggestion. The facility used medication and electro-convulsive therapy on her – rendering her brain dead, after which a male friend smothered her to “set her free.” COLD CASE – “Family 8108” (December 9) deals with the 1945 murder of a man who moved his family to Philadelphia following their release from a Japanese-American internment camp during World War II.

An example of CBS Outdoor’s billboards that use new materials for lighting and banners.

Focus on the Environment As the country’s second-largest billboard company, CBS Outdoor is on the forefront of efforts to reduce the billboard industry's reliance on less-than-environmentally-friendly materials, cut waste, and use less electricity in its business. This undertaking by CBS Outdoor, its suppliers, advertisers, and other CBS business units involves new materials for lighting and banners and changing generation-old habits in our daily operations. Industry-wide, there are approximately 170,000 billboards dotting expressways around the country. Nearly all of these 48-foot-long billboard bulletins are covered with ad banners made from polyvinyl chloride, or PVC. Additionally, another 200,000 or so smaller billboard posters are covered with thick paper panels. Neither the PVC banners nor the paper billboard materials are practical to recycle or reuse. CBS Outdoor is phasing out the use of PVC vinyl ad sheets and paper in favor of a new product made of recyclable polyethylene (PE). The banners also are about one third the weight of the traditional 75-pound billboard vinyl, which enhances the safety of employees handling it regularly. In addition, the lighter banners will mean reduced reliance on large

trucks and machinery to transport and install the ads. Replacement banners are just one of the industry's endeavors for more environmentally-conscious operations. When it comes to more efficient lighting systems, CBS Outdoor is using a new prototype from a synergy between our billboard and entertainment arms. The CBS television production team in Los Angeles was looking for new lighting for TV studios. It experimented with lower-wattage bulbs and suggested they could be used in the billboard business as well. This type of forward thinking and experimentation translates into a brighter, greener future for CBS Outdoor and the environment. Highlights In addition to the division’s environmental focus, the following is just a sampling of the projects CBS Outdoor and its many field offices championed throughout 2007: Detroit (Michigan) - Annual open house called “Outdoor 101” done in collaboration with Northwood Institute’s Marketing/Advertising students. - Employees support local school systems by discussing marketing at career days and speaking with students about outdoor advertising opportunities.

SHOWTIME Networks For over 30 years, SHOWTIME has been in the premium cable business offering viewers cutting-edge origninal series, thought-provoking original movies, insightful documentaries, first-run theatrical motion pictures, special live musical and comedy events, world-class boxing and mixed martial arts. SHOWTIME's current slate of immensely popular series, including THE TUDORS, WEEDS, DEXTER, CALIFORNICATION, BROTHERHOOD, THE L WORD, THIS AMERICAN LIFE and TRACEY ULLMAN'S STATE OF THE UNION, have brought the network unprecedented critical acclaim and broken new ground in the world of television. SHOWTIME has always been very progressive and forward-thinking with respect to both its programming and sense of social responsibility. The Company has a long history of being actively involved with a number of community organizations and of contributing to numerous charities. SHOWTIME was at the forefront in embracing and promoting diversity, encouraging HIV/AIDS and breast cancer activism, employee volunteerism, and other community outreach efforts.

62_

CBS | Social Responsibility Report

These efforts are ongoing (with some initiatives and employee involvement spanning many years). The following pages represent the scope of SHOWTIME’S commitment to its viewers and the community at-large. Programming SHOWTIME was one of the first cable television networks to make a concerted effort to create and air programming for and about traditionally underserved audiences, specifically, members of the Latino, African American and gay communities. The Company welcomed the participation of talented artists from these groups both in front of and behind the cameras. In its series and Original Movies, SHOWTIME also tackled important subject matter including issues dealing with HIV/AIDS, child abuse, discrimination, and hunger in America, to name but a few. For example, SHOWTIME financed a documentary called AFTER INNOCENCE, profiling seven men who had been wrongfully convicted and later proven innocent by DNA evidence with the help of lawyers from The Innocence Project. The film, which debuted in theaters a few years ago and appeared on SHOWTIME in 2006 and 2007, has played a significant role in educating the public about the tragedy of wrongful convictions and reforms needed in our criminal justice system. As a result, The Innocence Project honored SHOWTIME and Chairman & CEO, Matt Blank, at its first annual gala in April 2007. The work of the Innocence Project remains very much in the news, as an increasing number of wrongful convictions have come to light as a result of advances in DNA technology. SHOWTIME is also committed to supporting the fight against HIV/AIDS and educating viewers. In 2007, the network aired several important films on this pandemic, including BEAT THE DRUM, DEAR FRANCIS, THE BICYCLE and THREE NEEDLES. THREE NEEDLES depicted the spread of HIV/AIDS around the world and garnered SHOWTIME a Cable Positive 2007 “POP” Award for Positively Outstanding Programming. For World AIDS Day in December, SHOWTIME aired the eye-opening documentary, POSITIVE VOICES: WOMEN AND HIV. Other programming dealing with important issues that appeared on SHOWTIME in 2007 included: - AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH - The Al Gore documentary about global warming; - SEMPER FI - a documentary about a gay Marine's journey through military life and the war in Iraq; - BUD GREENSPAN PRESENTS PRIDE AGAINST PREJUDICE: THE LARRY DOBY STORY - a documentary about the first African American to play professional baseball in the American League; - FALL FROM GRACE - a documentary about a homophobic minister named Fred Phelps whose congregation is known for protesting at the funerals of gay soldiers who fought in Iraq; - OPEN WINDOW - a fictional movie about rape starring Robin Tunney

and Cybill Shepherd. SHOWTIME aired a PSA after this movie featuring a rape center hotline number. Diversity SHOWTIME was a forerunner among companies in championing diversity, and continues to make diversity a priority in its workplace and programming. The Company is a strong supporter of several non-profit industry organizations that work to increase diversity in the cable, satellite, and telecommunications businesses. These include: - NAMIC (National Association for Multi-Ethnicity in Communications) - The Walter Kaitz Foundation administered by the NCTA (National Cable Television Association) - The T. Howard Foundation (THF) - Women in Cable Telecommunications (WICT) SHOWTIME has also been a strong advocate for gay rights and was one of the first companies to offer same-sex partner benefits. The Company is a supporter of the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD), the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), Power Up, and The New York City Gay & Lesbian Anti-Violence Project, among other organizations that fight for equal rights in the LGBT community. In 2007, SHOWTIME allowed HRC to host premiere screening parties for THE L WORD and provided sponsorship of other HRC events. A number of executives at SHOWTIME have served on, and are currently members of, the Board of Directors of these and other organizations that promote diversity: - Matt Blank currently serves on the NCTA and FCC diversity committees - Ray Gutierrez, EVP, Human Resources and Administration, is on the

Board of Directors of NAMIC. - Gwen Marcus, EVP and General Counsel, is a Board Member of New York City's Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center. Gwen also serves on the Board of Directors of the Theatre Development Fund which is involved in many worthy endeavors, including enabling people with disabilities and inner-city students to attend the theater. - Tom Hayden, SHOWTIME EVP/General Manager Smithsonian Networks, is on the Board of the T. Howard Foundation, along with Kelly Parker, SHOWTIME VP, Point of Sale. - Sara Clarke, SVP, Strategy, Analysis & Communication, is a Director at Large for the NY Chapter of WICT. Sara also serves as a Board Member of Global Action Project, a non-profit that develops youth leaders through media production and discussion of world issues. The T. Howard Foundation (THF) recruits women and people of color to serve as interns in companies in the multimedia and entertainment industries. SHOWTIME has been participating in the THF intern program for quite some time, employing on average two interns per year, some of whom have gone on to become permanent employees of our company. Several of the above organizations present annual awards to cable networks whose programming promotes diversity. SHOWTIME's programming has frequently been nominated and won numerous awards. In 2006, THE L WORD received the GLAAD Media Award for “Outstanding Drama Series,” and was nominated again in 2007 and 2008. In 2007, SHOWTIME received nine NAMIC Vision Award nominations, more than any other network, and three wins. Additionally, for each of the past seven years, Cable Positive at its annual “POP” Awards for Positively Outstanding Programming has recognized SHOWTIME for its HIV/AIDS-related programming. SHOWTIME has also received awards from a number of Gay & Lesbian support groups. In 2007, the LA-based non-profit Outfest, which raises funds to showcase and preserve artistic expression and LGBT films, honored SHOWTIME for 30 years of groundbreaking LGBT programming. At this star-studded event, Outfest honored SHOWTIME President of Entertainment, Bob Greenblatt, with a Legacy Award. First Amendment Protection SHOWTIME also supports several organizations that work to protect First Amendment rights. These include People For The American Way, The Creative Coalition, and the Media Law Resource Center. Matt Blank is currently on the Board of the Creative Coalition. Community Outreach For many years, SHOWTIME has been a supporter of a number of community-based organizations. Principal among these are the Harlem Children's Zone (HCZ), which helps disadvantaged children and families in Harlem, and PENCIL (Public Education Needs Civic Involvement in Learning). Matt Blank has been a Trustee of the Harlem Children's Zone for over 10

64_

years. Showtime employees have volunteered to help HCZ in numerous ways, including mentoring and tutoring students and assisting HCZ with various projects. In 2004, SHOWTIME made a five-year commitment to fund an HIV/AIDS prevention program at HCZ to educate teenagers in the Harlem community, one of the areas in New York City hardest hit by the epidemic. Each year, SHOWTIME contributes $25,000 toward the program and Matt Blank, who spearheaded this initiative, personally matches this amount. As a result, hundreds of at-risk teens now have a greater understanding of the disease, are much less likely to contract it, and have a greater empathy for those afflicted. Part of this program includes an annual “Health Summit,” coordinated at the Harlem Children's Zone where, for the past several years, over 200 teens have gathered to listen to guest speakers, including medical professionals, and to discuss HIV/AIDS prevention. The students also participate in a poster contest sponsored by SHOWTIME for National HIV Testing Day in June 2007. The posters, which are printed by SHOWTIME and displayed throughout Harlem, encourage residents to take advantage of free testing at various neighborhood clinics. For the past six years, SHOWTIME has also sponsored a basketball tournament at the Harlem Children's Zone. This program evolved at the suggestion of SHOWTIME employees who were participating in SHOWTIME's mentoring program for young people in Harlem. Recognizing a need for after-school activities, the SHOWTIME employees came up with the idea of a basketball tournament and it has been an immensely popular and on-going spring event ever since. The tournament also emphasizes the importance of academic achievement and includes a career day forum. SHOWTIME's Chairman and CEO, Matt Blank, also serves on the Board of PENCIL, a non-profit organization which assists NYC public school children by encouraging corporate leaders to participate in its “Principal For A Day” program and support other initiatives to improve New York City's public schools. Through the “Principal For A Day” program, Matt Blank has visited schools in Queens and the Bronx, while Ray Gutierrez, EVP, Human Resources and Administration, has for many years visited a Brooklyn school with a largely Hispanic student body. SHOWTIME has donated equipment to the schools, funded trips for academic purposes and sponsored other beneficial programs, such as a video contest. Ray was invited to be a graduation-day speaker at the Brooklyn school (the High School for Enterprise, Business and Technology) and to serve as a judge at the school's science fair. He also helped students get funding for trips in 2007 to The Hague to learn about the work of the United Nations. Matt Blank also takes time out to speak to students when invited by various schools and universities. In March 2007, Matt was invited to speak at the Bronx High School for Science and Math by a colleague and fellow Board member of the Harlem Children's Zone who is serving as a “Teach For America” math teacher at this inner-city school.

SHOWTIME

SHOWTIME employees in offices other than New York are also involved with various charities in their respective communities. On the west coast, the SHOWTIME office in Los Angeles is affiliated with several worthy organizations whose outreach extends to disaffected communities in the area. To help those living with HIV/AIDS, SHOWTIME has contributed to Camp Laurel which provides support programs for children and families, and to Project Angel Food which delivers free meals to people suffering from the disease. The Los Angeles office also supports Shane's Inspiration which builds accessible playgrounds for children with disabilities, and has helped newly emancipated foster care youths of Alliance for Children's Rights, by providing housewares and gift cards to assist them in their transition to independent living. Additionally, senior executive Richard Licata, EVP, Corporate Communications, is on the Board of the Make a Wish Foundation of Greater Los Angeles. Health-Related Activism–Support of Cable Positive and the NY AIDS Service Center HIV / AIDS SHOWTIME has long been a major supporter of Cable Positive, a small

not-for-profit group which, for the past 15 years, has mobilized the resources of the cable and telecommunications industries to raise HIV/ AIDS awareness, and to support prevention and care programs. Ray Gutierrez is a member of the Board of Cable Positive and serves on its Executive Committee. Matt Blank was chosen to be the honoree at Cable Positive's annual gala in 2004. Many SHOWTIME employees across the country are involved with local chapters of Cable Positive. SHOWTIME also supports other AIDS organizations affiliated with Cable Positive, such as the New York AIDS Service Center, which honored SHOWTIME in December 2005. SHOWTIME employees have, for many years, participated in the New York and Los Angeles AIDS Walks. Traditionally, SHOWTIME was the largest AIDS Walk fundraiser among the many companies participating, due largely to the efforts of SHOWTIME's Gwen Marcus who would annually raise extraordinary amounts in the range of $50,000 to $80,000 to benefit the Gay Men's Health Crisis.

SHOWTIME employees on the West Coast have raised money for, and participated in, the Susan G. Komen Foundation Race for the Cure. The Foundation is dedicated to breast cancer education and research about causes, treatment, and the search for a cure. When a character on SHOWTIME's series, THE L WORD, passed away from breast cancer in a story line in 2006, SHOWTIME referred viewers for more information on the disease to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and the Mautner Project, a health service for lesbians. In 2006, a number of designers were commissioned to create clothing and accessories inspired by THE L WORD. This collection was sold online and in trendy retailers across the country. A portion of all proceeds was donated to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and the Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation. In a testament to the positive impact that programming can have, an anonymous donor was so moved by THE L WORD’s breast cancer story (in which one of the main characters, a tennis athlete named Dana, died of cancer) that they gave $1 million to the Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation to create an "Erin Daniels and Leisha Hailey Fund for Breast Cancer." (Erin Daniels played Dana and Leisha Hailey played Alice, Dana's girlfriend.) The donation is the largest ever received by the Foundation. The donor also committed to match donations to the Foundation on a dollar for dollar basis. This is quite a vivid and touching example of the power of this groundbreaking series to impact and help save women's lives.

hope, grace, and love. These women inspire me. And for that opportunity, I am thankful.” Dr. Susan Love, who is one of the eminent breast cancer researchers in the country, served as a consultant to THE L WORD about breast cancer and in fact appeared in an episode as herself. THE L WORD will return for its sixth season in 2009. Public Service Announcements & Charitable Contributions SHOWTIME is a commercial-free network, but has been regularly airing public service announcements on two topics: HIV/AIDS and parental control of cable channels. In 2007, the Company aired 30-second PSA's on SHOWTIME on these two issues throughout the year. As mentioned earlier, following the movie, OPEN WINDOW, which aired on SHOWTIME, the network featured a PSA with a rape center hotline number. In response to the devastating Southern California wildfires in the fall of 2007, SHOWTIME produced and aired a series of PSA's and also made a large donation to the American Red Cross.

Simon & Schuster Simon & Schuster is a global leader in the field of general interest publishing, dedicated to providing the best in fiction and nonfiction for consumers of all ages, across all printed, electronic, and multimedia formats. Founded in 1924 by Richard L. (Dick) Simon and M. Lincoln (Max) Schuster, its initial project was a crossword puzzle book, the first ever produced, which was a runaway bestseller. From that, the company has grown to become a multifaceted publishing house that publishes 1,900 titles annually, and whose seven divisions – Adult Publishing, Children’s Publishing, Audio, Digital, and international companies in the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia – are home to some of the most distinguished imprints and recognizable brand names in the world of publishing. Simon & Schuster and its imprints have won 54 Pulitzer Prizes, and been the recipient of numerous National Book Awards, National Book Critics Circle Awards, Grammy Awards, and Newbery and Caldecott Medals. With its titles and products distributed in over 100 countries around the world, Simon & Schuster is proud of its record of giving back to communities of readers everywhere. The following pages are a snapshot of the division's dedication to diversity and community outreach in 2007, beginning with Simon & Schuster’s commitment to the environment.

Simon & Schuster

Environmental Commitment In 2007, Simon & Schuster (S & S) made a firm commitment to publishing in an environmentally responsible manner. S & S was increasingly aware that the business of producing books relies on the ongoing use of some of the earth's most precious resources, and determined that it wanted to publish in a manner that respects the environment and helps to preserve the world's great forest regions for the use and pleasure of future generations. That's a lofty ambition, but one that the company needed to quantify in order to implement meaningful and achievable environmental goals. To reach the starting line, the employees from S & S's Supply Chain division spent many months conducting research and due diligence on a subject about which, it turned out, there is a bewildering array of conflicting information and interests. This included consulting with paper suppliers and book manufacturers to determine the actual availability of recycled fiber; sorting through many divergent perspectives regarding an alphabet soup of competing forestry certification standards; and navigating the complicated landscape of rules on the particulars of pre-and post-consumer recycling. S & S also partnered with the Green Press Initiative, an environmental advocacy group focused on publishing, which provided guidance and insight on best practices for environmentally friendly publishing.

After sorting through this veritable forest of data, S & S arrived at policy that made it a leader in environmentally friendly publishing practices. Highlights include: - For books printed and bound in the U.S., an incremental increase in the use of recycled fiber from a 10% baseline level in 2007 to a 25% or greater level by 2012, an increase of 150%. That target will result in the saving of 483,000 trees annually, and a reduction of nearly 85 million pounds in greenhouse gasses–equivalent to pulling 7600 cars off the road annually. -S & S is also endeavoring to eliminate the use of paper that may contain fiber from endangered and old-growth forest areas, and has set the goal that by 2012 at least 10% of its purchased paper will derive from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified forests, considered by many to be the most stringent standard of sustainable forestry management. S & S was the first major trade publisher to include an FSC target in its environmental policy. - All S & S branded shipping cartons (about 1.2 million annually) will be made from 100% recycled post-consumer waste, and all inventory destructions are recycled as mixed-use paper. There are other eco-friendly practices taking place at S& S, including an electronic manuscript reading program for its editorial departments and sales division that the company estimates will reduce the number of manuscripts reproduced by at least 20,000 per year.

Simon & Schuster was a major partner of First Book’s Book Relief initiative in August, which brought more than 5 million books to children, families, libraries and schools that were impacted by the 2005 hurricanes. Students in this New Orleans school were happy to receive books (S & S donated more than 3 million brand new books to First Book in 2007).

Diversity

Simon & Schuster’s ongoing efforts to promote diversity included: Employee Diversity Councils at each S&S domestic location serve as the “voice of employees” in company diversity efforts; assist in identifying and focusing on key issues, create plans and implement strategies to address them. Diversity Awareness Training for all employees Simon & Schuster Associates Program: a 12-18, entry level rotational program targets a more diverse, non traditional pool of employee candidates and exposes Associates to a wide range of publishing functions. Year-Round and Summer Internships introduce students from diverse backgrounds to Simon & Schuster and the world of publishing Mentor Program, which provides opportunity for exchange of ideas and perspectives between employees at different career levels and from all backgrounds and cultures. The program was designed to specifically address retention among employees with diverse backgrounds.

Community Outreach

Community Outreach Day Since 2003, Simon & Schuster has sponsored its annual Community Outreach Day, in which New York based employees spend a day working together in groups to help out regional charitable and civic organizations. In 2007, 150 employees pitched in to help at organizations as varied as God's Love We Deliver, AMFAR, the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of America, the Partnership for the Parks, the Humane Society, and the NYPL Teen Advisory Board. Adopt a High School In 2006, S & S entered into a partnership with the High School for Media and Communications in New York's Washington Heights neighborhood. Through the partnership, Simon & Schuster hopes to provide student's from the school's highly diverse population with first-hand experience of the various career opportunities available in publishing. The scope of the program encompasses field trips (to S & S by students, and speaking engagements and workshops at the school by S & S employees), author events, mentoring for a day, and sponsoring a book club.

both specific book drive events in different parts of the country, and for general distribution purposes. In April, S & S donated 225,000 books as part of a Memphis-based distribution, and in October another 300,000 books were donated in conjunction with the Bay Area Litquake festival. And in August, S & S was a major partner of First Book's Book Relief initiative, which brought more than 5 million books to children, families, libraries and schools that have been impacted by the 2005 hurricanes. In all, S & S donated more than 3 million brand new books to First Book in 2007. But S & S and First Book are also teaming up in new and unique ways to raise awareness for First Book's cause, and to spur donations from the general public. The two have partnered with General Mills' Cheerios® brand for the hugely successful Spoonfuls of Stories® program, in which miniature editions of bestselling Simon & Schuster children's books are placed in boxes of Cheerios. The program is backed by a substantial donation to First Book from Cheerios, and the companies have created a special Spoonful of Stories website (http:// spoonfulsofstories.com) where consumers can make a donation directly to First Book. “From our earliest days, Simon & Schuster Children's Publishing has provided critical support to First Book, setting a standard in the industry for their generosity and tireless commitment to our mission,” said Kyle Zimmer, President of First Book. “As we face declining trends in reading, it is even more important to place the highest quality, most engaging books into the hands of disadvantaged children. Through our continued work with Simon & Schuster, First Book is reaching the next generation–one child, one new book at a time.” Charitable Donations In 2007, Simon & Schuster made financial contributions to the following non-profit-organizations: - Poets & Writers - Literacy Partners - National Multiple Sclerosis Society-NY Chapter - The Author's Guild Foundation - Corporation of Yaddo - Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation - NY Chapter - PEN American Center - Columbia Publishing Course - National Book Foundation - Goddard Riverside Community Center - UJA-Federation of New York

First Book In 2007, S & S Children's Publishing continued its successful and productive partnership with First Book (www.firstbook.org), an award-winning nonprofit organization that gives children from low income families the opportunity to read and own their first new books. Picking up where it left off in 2006, S & S made numerous donations in large quantities to

The CW Network For years, UPN served as a prime destination for AfricanAmerican television viewers, offering dedicated nights of shows for this audience that spanned comedy, drama and reality. In 2006, CBS Corporation and Warner Bros. Television merged UPN with its competitor The WB to form CW, a new network that attracts underserved young audiences, in addition to the African-American demographic. The CW offers a six-night, 13-hour primetime lineup that runs Sunday through Friday, a weekday afternoon block and a five-hour Saturday morning animation block that delivers a total of 30 hours of programming a week over seven days. The CW Network offers television programming designed to appeal to a cross-section of young and diverse audiences across the country. Throughout the week, its shows attract record numbers of viewers in these demographics. As a reflection of the adult 18-34 year-old audience it targets, The CW also strives to be a socially responsible company with initiatives such as its “Free 2 B Green” environmental campaign, for which the network has partnered with the Natural Resources Defense Council and StopGlobalWarming.org. From family dramas (GILMORE GIRLS, 7TH HEAVEN) to Monday night’s hottest new show, GOSSIP GIRL, and African-American comedies (GIRLFRIENDS, ALL OF US, THE GAME) to Wednesday night's reality hit AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL (#1-rated series with young female viewers in its timeslot), the CW has a diverse range of programming to choose from.
