OMD Worldwide Ranked Most Creative Media Agency in the World by The Gunn
Report for Fourth Consecutive Year
Omnicom Media Group Named Most Awarded Media Holding Company

NEW YORK, April 10 /PRNewswire/ -- OMD Worldwide, the global media
communications agency, was named the most awarded media agency in the world
for the fourth year in a row by the just released 2007 Gunn Report for Media.
The Gunn Report for Media, which evaluates global media creativity, ranks
the most-awarded campaigns agencies and advertisers in media competitions
across the world. Since the Report began in 2004, OMD has maintained top
ranking, this time outscoring its nearest competitor by more than twice as
many points in the latest round of competition. OMD captured 234 points with
the second ranked media agency scoring 110.
The Report rates agencies on a point system based on awards won in annual
award competitions worldwide. Importantly, it recognizes the role that
innovative, creative and effective media make in building brand engagement and
demand with consumers.
"Consumers don't want to be told what to do anymore. They want to
participate, share and collaborate as never before. They want to control and
dictate when, where and how they are communicated to," Isabelle Musnik, editor
of The Gunn Report for Media, said. "Media creativity is therefore an
effective universal tool for brands for talking with consumers, meeting
objectives and standing out in a crowded field of competitors."
Daryl Simm, Chairman and CEO of Omnicom Media Group, said, "Both accolades
are a wonderful tribute to all our people around the world -- in OMD and
across Omnicom Media Group -- and to their skill, desire, and determination to
create outstanding media ideas that deliver real results for our clients."
