Song To Be Released Across iHeartMedia Radio Stations Nationally Immediately Following Jingle Ball Performance

Robin Hood Board Agrees To Match Up To $100,000 in Contributions From Fans and Listeners

New York, NY – December 9, 2016 — iHeartMedia has teamed up with the super star artists participating in the 2016 iHeartRadio Z100 Jingle Ball Presented by Capital One on Friday, Dec. 9 at New York City’s MSG, and Robin Hood, New York City’s largest poverty fighting organization, to raise money to help the homeless during the holiday season with the release of an original version of the iconic classic holiday song “Santa Claus is Coming To Town.” The special collaboration will be performed live on stage by DNCE along with special guests Daya, Hailee Steinfeld, Fifth Harmony, Tinashe, Charlie Puth, Rita Ora and others. Fans and listeners can contribute to the cause by donating via text or online.

There are more than 1.8 million New Yorkers living in poverty. Over 60,000 of them live in homeless shelters, including 23,000 children – enough to fill Madison Square Garden.

For those wanting to help Robin Hood and iHeartMedia shelter and feed the homeless in NYC, donations may be made by texting 27722 to give $10, or visiting rh.org/give. Thanks to the generosity of all participating musicians, music labels and Robin Hood’s board of directors, 100 percent of the proceeds will benefit local homeless families in New York. Additionally, the Robin Hood Board will match all contributions up to $100K.

This special holiday song release marks the beginning of an annual tradition of the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball Tour Presented Capital One. The exclusive version of ‘Santa Claus is Coming to Town’ will broadcast live on over 100 iHeartRadio stations across the country and video streamed live on CWTV.com tonight. The song will also be included in the CW Network exclusive national broadcast of the 2016 iHeartRadio Jingle Ball Presented by Capital One on December 15. And, beginning Saturday, Dec. 10 the song will be played on hundreds of iHeartMedia’s radio stations across the country through Christmas day.

“The homeless in New York City and across the country are hardest hit during the holiday season and it’s incredible to see that once again musicians and artists have stepped up to help those less fortunate,” said John Sykes, President of Entertainment Enterprises at iHeartMedia. “iHeartMedia is committed to using all of our powerful assets -- radio, digital, video, live events and social -- in the spirit of giving back to the needy during the holidays.”

“iHeartMedia is the best kind of partner. Their commitment to helping New Yorkers grappling with poverty runs deep,” said David Saltzman, executive director of Robin Hood. “Providing the basics for survival – shelter and food – to those in need is critical year-round, but it’s particularly appreciated now.”

The "iHeartRadio Jingle Ball Tour Presented by Capital One" is now the holiday season’s premiere music event with performances by the year’s biggest recording artists. The iHeartRadio Jingle Ball 2016 Tour Presented by Capital One will stop in Dallas; San Francisco; Los Angeles; Minneapolis; Philadelphia; New York; Boston; Washington, D.C.; Chicago; Atlanta; Tampa and Miami.

First Fully Differentiated Streaming Music Service Officially Launches in Beta Today for iOS and Android
iHeartMedia Collaborates with Napster to Power iHeartRadio All Access Features

NEW YORK – December 1, 2016 — iHeartMedia, the creator of iHeartRadio – the all-in-one streaming music and live digital radio service – today announced the beta availability of iHeartRadio Plus and iHeartRadio All Access powered by Napster. This is the first service that uses on demand functionality to make radio truly interactive, as compared to all current players that simply add on demand functionality to the music collection experience. Available now in beta on iOS and Android devices, the two new services will be fully available on mobile and desktop in January 2017.

With more than 850 radio stations in 150 markets that reach over a quarter of a billion monthly listeners across the U.S, iHeartMedia has the largest national reach of any radio or television outlet in America and is the only media company that has the assets, platform and reach to drive massive consumer awareness and introduce these two new subscription services, built around real radio, to a large new audience on a national scale. In addition, 84 percent of iHeartRadio users do not currently subscribe to an on demand service – and now, for the first time, may be interested in subscribing to a service that provides them with the best of live radio combined with easy-to-use on demand functionality that makes radio programming truly interactive - and that they can connect directly to their music collection, something no other service or company has the assets to offer.

"10 times more Americans listen to radio every month than use a subscription service – so the debut of iHeartRadio Plus and iHeartRadio All Access powered by Napster is a unique opportunity to capture these non-music subscribers with an on demand service built around radio," said Bob Pittman, Chairman and CEO of iHeartMedia. "Whereas the LP, CD and music downloads are the ancestors of all current on demand services, the ancestor for our new on demand offerings is broadcast radio. By combining radio's popularity and reach with interactive on demand functionality, we have created the first fully differentiated streaming music service for consumers."

iHeartRadio Plus, $4.99 a month, completely transforms live radio listening with the addition of:

• Replay: Giving subscribers the ability to instantly replay songs from the radio and then return to the live radio station in progress;
• Live and custom Artist Radio stations: now equipped with a save button, allowing subscribers to instantly save songs from the radio directly to their My Music playlist for playback any time;
• Search: Search and play any song from a library of millions of tracks;
• Unlimited skips: Subscribers listening to custom Artist Radio stations will no longer have a limit on the number of songs they can skip.

IBM and GM introduce new cognitive mobility platform to improve the driving experience for millions of consumers

Watson to connect consumers with such brands as ExxonMobil, Glympse, iHeartRadio, Mastercard and Parkopedia

DETROIT and LAS VEGAS – Oct 26, 2016 — General Motors and IBM today announced a partnership to bring the power of OnStar and IBM Watson together to create OnStar Go, the auto industry’s first cognitive mobility platform. Starting in early 2017, OnStar is expected to give millions of GM drivers the ability to connect and interact with their favorite brands. The platform will deliver personalized content through the dashboard and other digital channels supported by the OnStar Go ecosystem to make the most of time spent in the car.

Combining OnStar’s industry leading vehicle connectivity and data capabilities with IBM Watson APIs will create experiences that allow drivers and passengers to achieve greater levels of efficiency and safety. These experiences could include avoiding traffic when you’re low on fuel, then activating a fuel pump and paying from the dash; ordering a cup of coffee on the go; or getting news and in-vehicle entertainment tailored to your personality and location in real time.

“On average, people in the U.S. spend more than 46 minutes per day in their car* and are looking for ways to optimize their time,” said Phil Abram, Executive Director, GM Connected Products and Strategy. “By leveraging OnStar’s connectivity and combining it with the power of Watson, we’re looking to provide safer, simpler and better solutions to make our customers’ mobility experience more valuable and productive.”

The GM/IBM partnership will expand the existing OnStar AtYourService offers and deals platform by launching new capabilities supported by OnStar Go with IBM Watson. These capabilities will be available in more than two million 4G LTE connected vehicles and millions of GM vehicle brand app-enabled mobile devices in the U.S. by the end of 2017.

With the customer’s consent, Watson will learn the driver’s preferences, apply machine learning and sift through data to recognize patterns in their decisions and habits. This information will allow brand and marketing professionals working with IBM and OnStar to deliver individualized location-based interactions that directly impact their target audiences. Companies in retail, fuel, hospitality, media and entertainment, restaurants and travel and transportation and more can use OnStar Go to build individualized mobile, in-vehicle experiences for a growing population of connected drivers that opt-in.

The new cognitive mobility platform enables brands to design Watson-enabled consumer experiences. Examples of potential uses include:

• OnStar Go taps Watson Personality Insights and Watson Conversation APIs to remind a working father to pick up diapers and formula at the pharmacy a few miles before his exit, so he won’t have to leave the house again once he gets home.
• The platform employs Watson Tradeoff Analytics to give a traveling foodie dining recommendations from celebrity chefs when driving in a new city.
• Watson Retrieve and Rank, used by OnStar Go, lets the driver know that their order is ready for pickup at a nearby retail store and one of the store’s employees will load their purchases into the car.

“IBM and GM are changing the whole notion of where valuable, daily rituals occur. The combination of IBM Watson and industry-leading OnStar connectivity will enable vehicles with intelligent branded skills and services to empower drivers and passengers,” said Paul Papas, Global Leader, IBM iX. “Simply put, OnStar Go with IBM Watson transforms time wasted in the car into time well spent.”

ExxonMobil, Glympse, iHeartRadio, Mastercard and Parkopedia are the first brands to join the platform.

• ExxonMobil will use the cognitive mobility platform to help drivers quickly locate Exxon and Mobil retail fuel stations, recommend the best fuel and lubricant product for their vehicle, and authorize fuel payment from inside the vehicle. Consumers can even pay for a car wash or, when away from their car, get notified when they are low on fuel.
• Glympse, a location technology partner in the cognitive mobility platform, enables consumers and businesses to manage customized real-time location sharing with anyone on any device.
• iHeartRadio will use Watson Personality Insights from OnStar Go to curate personalized experiences that leverage on-air personalities and local content from radio stations across the U.S. Drivers will be invited to share information from their calendars, social graph, location, music preferences and more, to create dynamic and locally relevant entertainment experiences only available through the power of radio.
• Mastercard will enable drivers and passengers to safely make simple, secure and seamless payments for goods and services from the comfort of their cars. By integrating the security of Mastercard tokenization platform -- Mastercard Digital Enablement Service (MDES) -- and Masterpass digital payment service within OnStar Go, Mastercard will enable consumers to complete transactions using credit or debit cards stored in their Masterpass wallets.
• Parkopedia will provide detailed parking spot information -- including opening hours and up-to-date prices as well as booking and payment capabilities. Drivers find, reserve and pay for parking all at the click of a button.

The cognitive mobility platform was designed and developed by IBM iX in conjunction with OnStar, using iX’s expertise in experience and mobile design. iX is also working with GM to design OnStar’s intuitive, touch screen interfaces for consumers on the go. The Weather Company, an IBM Company, will provide rich weather and location data to support personalized targeting and warnings about driving conditions.

GM began the connected vehicle revolution 20 years ago with the launch of OnStar and has more connected vehicles on the road than any other automaker. By the end of 2016, GM expects to have 12 million On-Star connected vehicles on the road worldwide.

iHeartMedia Markets Group Creates New Southwest Division

Regions in Former Central Division Reconfigured to Better Enhance Synergies Among Operating Regions

October 4, 2016 – New York, NY - iHeartMedia, the leading media company in America with a greater reach in the U.S. than any other radio or television outlet, announced today that its iHeartMedia Markets Group is creating a new Southwest Division that will include many Regions formerly in its Central Division. Other former Central Division Regions will be moved into the West and Midwest/Southeast Divisions to better align them with the right resources and operating structure.

Kevin LeGrett, formerly iHeartMedia’s Los Angeles Region President, will become President of the new Southwest Division, which will now include the Los Angeles, San Diego/Riverside, Arizona, Red River, Houston, Dallas and Austin/San Antonio Regions. He will continue to report to Greg Ashlock, President of iHeartMedia West, and will also become a member of the company’s senior executive Operating Committee.

In addition to overseeing the new Southwest Division, Ashlock will add the Denver, Western Great Lakes and Omaha Regions to his existing West Division. The St. Louis, Nashville and Mid-South Regions will move to the Midwest/Southeast Division under President Tom McConnell. The Pittsburgh Region, formerly part of the Midwest/Southeast Division, will now move to the Northeast Division under President Hartley Adkins. Both LeGrett and Ashlock will continue to operate from iHeartMedia West’s headquarters in Los Angeles.

New York, NY – September 29, 2016 – Advertising Age, the leading global source of news, intelligence and conversation for the marketing and media community, and iHeartMedia, the leading media company in America with a greater reach in the U.S. than any other radio or television outlet, announced a partnership to hand the microphone over to the most creative people in the businesses of advertising, marketing and communications to let the rest of us listen as they talk openly and honestly about their craft.

Tagline will give listeners an insider’s perspective on what the world that influences pop culture is really all about. The new podcast series will air twice a month on iHeartRadio and Advertising Age and feature a rotating series of the most talented and entertaining people in the business tackling everything from the most pressing questions to the most annoying trends. The content and the participants will evolve organically as each episode concludes with this week’s Tagline host tagging the next guests via an unprompted phone call.

“We are excited and a little scared to turn the mic over to our friends in advertising, to create the most honest, inspiring and entertaining dialogue on the industry, ” said Gayle Troberman, Chief Marketing Officer of iHeartMedia. “Everything sound is exploding, radio, streaming and podcasts are all up significantly year over year, so the time is right to create an original audio series for the advertising community. We suspect there will be no shortage of talent or opinions to keep the content and listeners flowing.”

"Every day, people in the marketing community are whispering about what’s happened and what’s next – and now Tagline will let people all across the industry listen to those otherwise private conversations," said Josh Golden, Publisher of Advertising Age. "Our audience wants to hear about the real conversations, frustrations, insights and resolutions that happen in the conference rooms late at night and this partnership with iHeart will expose exactly that.”

Produced by iHeartRadio, iHeartMedia’s digital music and streaming radio service with more than 90 million registered users and over a billion downloads, the first season of Tagline will launch in November and include 24 podcasts and special edition episodes corresponding with select industry events. The audio collaboration will be available for listeners via iHeartRadio, which is now available on 90 unique device platforms spanning in-home entertainment, wearables, gaming, mobile and auto, as well as on AdAge.com.

Tagline was announced last night during Advertising Week by Bob Pittman, Chairman and CEO of iHeartMedia at an exclusive VIP event hosted by iHeartMedia and the Ad Council, which also featured an intimate performance with recording artist John Legend.
