has generated some $4.2 million in local ad sales for 300 cable operators
linking up with the network's 250 hours of Yule programming Dec. 1 through

would top the $4 million mark.

Baskin-Robbins Inc., Burger King Corp. and Subway Restaurants.
General Mills Inc. and RadioShack Corp. are sponsoring a national online
sweepstakes component with Air Jamaica, Black & Decker Corp., Eastman Kodak
