Affiliate and subscription fee revenues rose 12 percent. Ad revenues were down 3 percent though, impacted by the performance at CBS Radio. OIBDA increased 7 percent, while operating income increased 10 percent.

These include three major retransmission consent agreements, an important reverse compensation deal, new international and domestic streaming contracts, and the sale of our two new hit dramas,<em> Vegas<\/em> and <em>Elementary<\/em>, into international syndication. As we continue to take actions like these, we are increasing our recurring revenue from non-advertising sources and setting ourselves up for even more record results in the future. Going forward, we will continue to expand the ways we achieve value for our content, and we are confident we will hit our goal of a record 2012 and an even better 2013.&rdquo;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW YORK: For its third quarter, CBS Corporation reported net income of $391 million, up 16 percent for the year-on-year comparison, and revenue rose 2 percent, to $3.4 billion.
