Lynn Bolger Returns to comScore as EVP of Advertising Solutions

    NEW YORK, Sept. 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- comScore (Nasdaq:   SCOR), a
 leader in measuring the digital world, today announced the return of Lynn
 Bolger to comScore as executive vice president of comScore Advertising
 Solutions, where she will focus her efforts on helping comScore's clients
 maximize the return from their investments in digital marketing.
     Most recently, Ms. Bolger served as VP of Advertising and Sales
 Research at Yahoo!, where she was responsible for all media and market
 research in support of search and advertising sales and the development of
 strategic insights to enhance the positioning, packaging and value of
 Yahoo!'s advertising products.
     Prior to joining Yahoo!, Ms. Bolger spent four years at comScore where
 she succeeded in significantly increasing the use of comScore's online
 media research products and services by the advertising agency community.
 Success required intimate knowledge of the media decision-making process,
 and how the right data and tools could enhance that process for both buyers
 and sellers. When Ms. Bolger began her original tenure at comScore, the
 company had just a handful of agency clients; when she left, scores of
 agencies, including many of the largest digital advertising agencies, had
 contractually committed to the use of comScore's Media Metrix data and the
 company's related media planning and analysis tools.
     Ms. Bolger's career includes more than 20 years of agency experience.
 She headed the online media practice at Initiative Media and Ammirati Puris
 Lintas, both of which were a part of the Interpublic Group of Companies.
 She has worked directly in "new" media since 1992, when she chaired a
 Worldwide Task Force on New Electronic Media for FCB and then went on to be
 Media Director for FCB's first interactive media unit. In her early years,
 Ms. Bolger held media research and planning positions at major agencies,
 working on accounts such as BMW, Compaq, Campbell Soup Company, Frito Lay
 and Avis.
     Ms. Bolger is a recognized leader in the online media industry. She has
 served extensively on committees of the Internet Advertising Bureau, the
 Advertising Research Foundation and the Association of American Advertising
 Agencies and she speaks frequently at industry events.
     "We're thrilled to have Lynn Bolger back on our team at comScore," said
 Magid Abraham, CEO of comScore. "Lynn's proven track record of success,
 extensive agency experience and industry expertise make her the ideal
 leader of comScore's Advertising Solutions business. Lynn has been a key
 contributor to comScore's success, and we look forward to her building on
 her legacy at comScore by delivering superior results to our clients who
 seek to increase the ROI from their marketing investments."
