BALTIMORE, May 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:SBGI) announced today that WBFF-TV (FOX 45) and WNUV-TV (WB 54) in Baltimore have received the distinguished honor of being named one of SmartWoman Magazine's (SWM) "25 Best Places to Work for Women" in the Baltimore region and were recognized as the region's most desirable place of employment for the "Young and Hip."

SmartWoman Magazine polled readers and collected nominations on 56 large companies, small businesses and non-profit organizations for this recognition event. Companies were selected by the editorial staff at SWM based on a collection of variables including benefit packages, unique programs for women, flexible scheduling and interesting corporate culture details. This year, SmartWoman organized the 25 places into four categories: Young and Hip, Working Mom, All Business, and Second Time Around. This is the 3rd year the magazine has sponsored the award.

The "Young and Hip" category is defined as young women on the move, with a lifestyle that includes socializing with friends, dining out, exploring the city's arts and culture, and seeking adventure through personal, intellectual and professional pursuits.

"This is a great honor for us," commented FOX45/WB54 General Manager William Fanshawe. "In today's intense and competitive marketplace, it's reassuring to know that the positive and rewarding environment you strive to sustain is appreciated. Our employment philosophy is to do everything possible to help ensure a diverse workplace with regard to age, gender, and race of our employees and to create the best working environment possible for all employees, both male and female and both older and younger individuals. Of course, our level of success is also directly associated with the type of people we employ, and the men and women of all ages at FOX45 and WB54 have helped to make us the broadcast leaders that we are today."

The May/June issue announcing the honorees hits newsstands on Monday, May 15.
