Close on the heels of the motion
picture industry's rejection of the
opportunity to sponsor the 33rd Annual
Awards telecast, the Academy is negotiating
contracts both for networks to
carry the show and with potential commercial
sponsors. Our six-year contract
with NBC expired this year.
We do not anticipate any difficulty
on either score. All three networks have
expressed an interest in carrying this
show which annually has received the
highest rating of the year for television,
and we have been approached by
many companies interested in sponsoring
the telecast.
