"A criação desta nova posição reflete a presença já significativa de nossas marcas de televisão em todo o mundo, incluindo a MTV, Nickelodeon, BET e a Comedy Central, e a crescente importância de se continuar a desenvolver a presença através de todas nossas propriedades", acrescentou o Sr. Dauman. "Pretendemos também estender ainda mais os canais de televisão  com o tema Paramount, aproveitando o conhecimento da marca Paramount Pictures e a popularidade dos filmes em seu vasto acervo. Tudo isso contribui para a crescente força de nossas marcas e negócios domésticos, os quais continuarão a fornecer combustível e impulso para nossas ambições internacionais".
