Restructuring Charges

In the second quarter of 2010, we announced plans to restructure certain areas of the Network Radio business (the “2010 Program”). The 2010 Program included charges related to the consolidation of certain operations that reduced our workforce levels during 2010, and additional actions to reduce our workforce as an extension of the 2008 Program. All costs related to the 2010 Program were incurred by the end of 2010 and all remaining liabilities were paid during the first half of 2011.

In the first quarter of 2011, we announced plans to restructure certain areas of the Network Radio business (the “2011 Program”). The 2011 Program included charges related to the consolidation of certain operations that will reduce our workforce levels during 2011. We recorded $1,061 of severance expense for the 2011 Program in the nine months ended September 30, 2011. We also recorded costs of $850 related to the termination of a programming agreement in the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

The restructuring charges included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations are comprised of the following:
