Viacom Profits Rise 80% (i.e. Thanks Transformers!)
http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?p...dsI&refer=home

Viacom, owner of Paramount and MTV among other things, has reported an 80% rise in profit for the third quarter, as opposed to last year. Of the items that they say contributed to this big rise are:

Cable advertising, the movie "Transformers'' and the sale of its Famous Music publishing business

Wow....

That's great.

The article is like: "Viacom reported an 80% rise. Something. Something. 50% rise on tickets sales thank to Transformers. Paramount top studio thanks to Transformers. Increased DVD sales thanks to Transformers. Transformers. Transformers. Something."

Conclusion: more money for the sequel! YAY!
