ARE YOU READY
FOR THE CHALLENGES IN 2008?

Jan.14.2008 - This was the question posed by our General Manager, Terry Fahy, at the quarterly luncheon. We must recognize that our daily challenges are learning tools that will help us develop our skills and enrich our character.

As mentioned by Terry, we also have five outstanding elements here that reminds us that Salem L.A. is up to the challenge:

1. We have great broadcast facilities. Our 5 stations signals cover16 million people!
2. We broadcast the highest quality programming anywhere. Something you can be proud of and will not go out of style.
3. We have the most loyal radio audiences in the market.
4. We have the tools to win. The highest quality production facilities, the best traffic and automation systems, outstanding research and training, great offices and atmosphere to work in, and the best food.
5. Finally we have the best people. Literally hundreds of years of radio experience is represented in this room. From Programming to production to traffic to promotions to engineering to technical to sales to management-- hand chosen by me, so you must be good!

As the saying goes, "there's always room for improvement," so in order to put ourselves in the right perspective, Terry provided us with the Eight Habits of Successful People:

• Improve our people skills. Successful people know how to get along with others.
• Get rid of negative attitudes. They bring you down and those around you. Attitude is a choice. Successful people always believe the glass is half full.
• Stay focused. A wise man once said “a double minded man is unstable in all his ways.” Or as they say on the grid iron: “keep your eye on the ball.” Keep the main thing the main thing. Don’t be distracted by what others are doing or not doing.
• Be willing to change. “Blessed are the flexible, for they will not be bent out of shape.”
• Avoid the shortcut mindset. There are no shortcuts to long term success.
• Stop relying on talent alone—add a strong work ethic.
• Be discerning. Avoid impulse decisions. Get your information right before judging people or situations.
• Set goals. A goal is a dream with a deadline. Start dreaming!

The KRLA sales team, headed by Mark Pennington and Chet Thompson, rallied the staff to provide items for the troops through Operation Gratitude. The purpose of Operation Gratitude is to encourage and thank the military men and women by sending care packages that contain food, toiletries, entertainment items, such as movies and magazines, as well as letters of appreciation.
Perseverance and commitment was the theme of the third quarter luncheon, as Salem L.A. recognized many of its invaluable employees. Each department gave awards to its employees, thanking them for their dedication to their job. This quarter’s Shining Star recipient went to Rob Ismael, who received a reserved parking space for the next quarter, a $100 gift certificate to the restaurant of his choice, a rotating spot congratulating him on KKLA, KFSH, KRLA, and KTIE, along with his name added to the perpetual list of Shining Star Award winners.
Our Commander-in-Chief, Terry Fahy, closed the luncheon by reminding us that attitude is everything, especially in the mind of a winner and a loser.
