80% in zone for 'TMZ' bow


February 26, 2007 WBDTD has inked multiyear deals on the first-run strip from Telepictures Prods. with stations from such groups as Sinclair, Tribune, Cox, McGraw-Hill, LIN, Clear Channel, Media General, Meredith, Cascade, ACME, Raycom and Landmark. The news follows last month's announcement at NATPE, where "TMZ" was officially unveiled, that the show had been sold to the Fox-owned television stations. "TMZ," based on Telepictures/AOL entertainment news Web site TMZ.com, is designed to skew younger than other syndicated entertainment newsmagazines -- targeting the 18-49 demo -- and appeal to males and females.
