Exhibit 99.1

Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2007 Results

Total Company Revenue Rises 13%;

Publishing Revenue Surges 27% Led by Ad Revenue;

New Merchandising Initiatives Build Momentum;

Company on Track for Return to Profitability in 2007

     NEW YORK, Nov. 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc. (NYSE: MSO) today announced its results for the third quarter, reporting a 13% increase in revenue to $69.3 million, with the company’s Publishing business showing particular strength.

     President and Chief Executive Officer Susan Lyne said: “MSO enjoyed a terrific third quarter, and our consolidated results handily exceeded last year’s third quarter. Publishing performance and momentum in Merchandising underscore the vibrancy of the Martha Stewart brand. Financially, our double-digit revenue growth and favorable trend in adjusted EBITDA demonstrate the continued strength of our business, which is on course to return to profitability for the full year 2007.

     “Publishing continues to be a powerful engine for this company — both on the top and bottom lines. In this quarter, advertising revenue in our Publishing segment rose 40%, led by strong sales at Martha Stewart Living, our flagship magazine and a bellwether for our brands. Ad revenue growth continues to exceed page growth across all of our publications, with a robust fourth quarter underway.

     “On the Merchandising front, we successfully launched our Martha Stewart Collection of home products exclusively at Macy’s and on macys.com. This initiative is one of the most important in the series of licensing deals we rolled out this year, and we are encouraged by the early results. In September, we broadened the distribution of our Martha Stewart Crafts line to independent retailers. We also refreshed a portion of our soft home offerings at Kmart. In addition, we expect to introduce the first product in our forthcoming co-branded food line with Costco before the end of the year.

     “Improving the revenue growth and financial performance of our Internet business remains a key strategic priority. We are investing in the people and other resources necessary to take our digital business to the next level.”

Third Quarter 2007 Summary

     Revenues rose 13% to $69.3 million, compared to $61.1 million for the third quarter of 2006. The third quarter results were principally driven by advertising revenue growth in Publishing and revenue from the company’s book deal with Clarkson Potter. The results for the prior year quarter included a one-time revenue item of $3.0 million related to the favorable resolution of a dispute with a former merchandising licensee.

     Operating loss for the third quarter was $(4.9) million, compared to $(7.9) million for the third quarter of 2006. The prior year period included a $2.5 million benefit from the resolution of a dispute with a former merchandising licensee; excluding the resolution, third quarter 2006 operating loss would have been $(10.4) million.

     Adjusted EBITDA loss for the third quarter of 2007 was a loss of $(0.7) million, compared to $(2.6) million in the prior year period. Excluding the one-time benefit, the adjusted EBITDA loss in the prior year period would have been $(5.1) million. The improvement of $4.4 million was driven largely by revenue from advertising and the book deal.

     Loss per share from continuing operations was $(0.08) for the third quarter of 2007, compared to $(0.49) for the third quarter of 2006. The

prior year quarter included a litigation reserve of $18.2 million. Excluding the litigation reserve and the licensing resolution, loss per share from continuing operations would have been $(0.18) in the prior year period.

Third Quarter 2007 Results by Segment

Publishing

     Revenues in the third quarter of 2007 rose 27% to $46.2 million from $36.3 million in the prior year’s quarter, led by strong gains at Living.

     Operating income was $6.2 million for the third quarter of 2007, compared to $2.2 million in the third quarter of 2006.

     Adjusted EBITDA was $7.7 million, compared to $2.9 million in the third quarter of 2006, due largely to the increase in advertising revenue and the delivery of two books in our publishing deal with Clarkson Potter. The current period included an investment of $1.7 million in Blueprint magazine, compared to an investment in Blueprint of $1.2 million in the prior year period.

Highlights

• Publishing continues to be a key growth driver with segment revenue growth of 27%. Total ad revenue increased 40% in the quarter with pages up 25% at Martha Stewart Living, 21% at Everyday Food, and 16% at body + soul. Ad revenue growth exceeded page growth, maintaining a strong and steady trend of rate growth from last year.

• The company published the first two titles — The Martha Stewart Living Cookbook Volume I: The Original Classics and The Martha Stewart Living Cookbook Volume II: The New Classics — under its new agreement with Clarkson Potter to publish 10 books over a five-year period.

• In January, MSO will continue the trend of increasing its rate bases, with Living going from 1,950,000 to 2,000,000, Everyday Food going from 875,000 to 900,000, Blueprint going from to 400,000 to 450,000 and body + soul going from 450,000 to 500,000.

• Earlier this week, Adweek named Living to their 2007 “Brand Leaders Hot List” of magazines for the second consecutive year. The list recognizes magazines “doing the most aggressive, ingenious job” of expanding their brands.

Merchandising

     Revenues were $11.0 million for the third quarter of 2007, as compared to $11.9 million in the prior year’s third quarter. The current quarter included revenue from new partnerships, including the Martha Stewart Collection which launched exclusively at Macy’s and on macys.com in September, as well as the Martha Stewart Crafts line. The results for the prior year quarter included $3.0 million from the favorable resolution of a dispute with a former merchandising licensee; excluding that one-time benefit in the prior year quarter, third quarter 2007 revenue would have increased $2.1 million over the prior year period.

     Operating income was $3.6 million for the third quarter of 2007, compared to $5.7 million in the third quarter of 2006.

     Adjusted EBITDA was $4.0 million for the third quarter of 2007, compared to $6.1 million in the prior year’s third quarter. Excluding the prior year one-time item, adjusted EBITDA in the current year would have increased $0.4 million, as the prior year’s adjusted EBITDA would have been $3.6 million.

Highlights

• The Martha Stewart Collection exclusively at Macy’s launched on September 10. The line encompasses a broad range of home goods — including bed and bath textiles, housewares, casual dinnerware, flatware and glassware, cookware, holiday decorating, and tree-trimming items.

• The Martha Stewart Crafts line of paper-based crafting and storage products, which launched exclusively at Michaels and on marthastewartcrafts.com, began rolling out to independent craft retailers.

• In Spring 2008, we plan to launch a new co-branded flowers program with 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, which will feature flower arrangements, plants and gift baskets and will offer any-day and same-day delivery. MSO’s existing flower business, marthastewartflowers.com, is expected to continue providing consumers flowers direct from growers’ farms through the Valentine’s Day selling season.

• Our forthcoming co-branded food line with Costco is on track to launch in early 2008. We expect to introduce one specialty item — a smoked ham — in time for the 2007 holidays.

Internet

     Revenues were $3.3 million in the third quarter of 2007 compared to $2.8 million in the third quarter of 2006.

     Operating loss was $(2.1) million in the third quarter of 2007, compared with $(0.8) million in the third quarter of 2006.

     Adjusted EBITDA loss was $(1.7) million in the third quarter of 2007, compared to $(0.6) million in the third quarter of 2006. Increased revenue was more than offset by expenses related to an increase in headcount and technology related to our new platform.

Highlights

• While third quarter user metrics were below plan, there has been progress over the past month, including an increase in page views and engagement. This trend, while early, reaffirms the company’s content strategy and supports some recent initiatives such as our photo galleries and refined search.

• The website is being enhanced regularly with fresh content. New tools are being added, with personalization and community features launching

soon.  With these new features, users should be able to save content to a personal web page and add comments, ratings and reviews to articles, recipes and how-to content.

Broadcasting

     Revenues in the third quarter of 2007 were $8.8 million, compared to $10.1 million in the third quarter of 2006. The prior year’s quarter included higher revenue from the cable distribution of the show. The conclusion of a former cable agreement and the erosion of the daytime television audience were partially offset by product integration revenue.

     Operating loss was $(0.9) million for the third quarter of 2007, compared with $(1.8) million in the third quarter of 2006.

     Adjusted EBITDA was $(1.0) million for the third quarter of 2007, compared to $(0.5) million in the prior year’s third quarter. The decline in adjusted EBITDA was attributable to lower revenue and was mitigated somewhat by an increase in product integrations and a decrease in expenses primarily due to production cost savings.

Highlights

• The third season of The Martha Stewart Show, which is broadcast in 95 percent of the U.S. markets, got underway in September. With the shift in time slots this season, ratings have declined but advertising rates and product integration revenue are up.

• The company extended its television presence with several new broadcasting initiatives, including a licensing deal with the Scripps-owned Fine Living TV Network, which is airing The Martha Stewart Show in primetime on a day delay, and a series for the DIY Network consisting of half-hour Martha Stewart Crafts segments, which begins airing in November. In addition, MSO launched Martha Stewart On Demand, an advertising-supported video-on-demand service available to Comcast digital and Cox Cable customers that provides 24/7 access to 10 hours of Martha Stewart programming each month.

Corporate Expenses

     Total Corporate expenses were $(11.7) million in the third quarter of 2007, compared to $(13.3) million in the prior year’s quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $(9.8) in the current period, compared to a loss of $(10.5) million in the prior year period.

Trends and Outlook

     Howard Hochhauser, Chief Financial Officer, commented: “Building off a strong third quarter, we are well positioned to return to profitability and generate positive free cash flow in 2007. We continue to improve performance through the growth and integration of our multi-media platforms. We are also seeking to augment growth and stockholder returns with improved capital efficiency by putting our strong balance sheet to use.”

     For the fourth quarter of 2007, we are expecting revenue of approximately $120.0 million, operating income in the range of $33.0 — $35.0 million and adjusted EBITDA in the range of $37.0 - $39.0 million.

     For the full year 2007, we are now expecting revenue of approximately $330.0 million, operating profit in the range of $7.5 — $9.5 million, and adjusted EBITDA in the range of $33.0 - $35.0 million. The revised adjusted EBITDA primarily reflects investments in revenue-generating staff for our media businesses and Marthapedia, an Internet project under development, as well as our more conservative posture on the housing market.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

     In addition to using net income to assess the organization’s overall financial health, Company management uses net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and non-cash equity compensation (“adjusted EBITDA”), a non-GAAP financial measure, to evaluate the performance of our businesses on a real-time basis. Adjusted EBITDA is considered an important indicator of operational strength, is a direct component of the Company’s annual compensation program, and is a significant factor in helping our management determine how to allocate resources and capital. Adjusted EBITDA is used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. Management considers adjusted EBITDA to be a critical measure of operational health because it captures all of the revenue and ongoing operating expenses of our businesses without the influence of (i) interest charges, which result from our capital structure, not our ongoing business efforts, (ii) taxes, which relate to the overall organizational financial return, not that of any one business, (iii) the capital expenditure costs associated with depreciation and amortization, which are a function of historical decisions on infrastructure and capacity, and (iv) the cost of non-cash equity compensation which, as a function of our stock price, can be highly variable, is not necessarily an indicator of current operating performance for any individual business unit, and is amortized over the appropriate period.

     Adjusted EBITDA provides a means to directly evaluate the ability of our business operations to generate returns on a real-time basis. We provide disclosure of adjusted EBITDA because we believe it is useful for investors to have means to assess our performance as we do. While adjusted EBITDA is a customized non-GAAP measure, it also provides a means to analyze, value and compare our operating capabilities to those of companies with whom we compete, many of which have different compensation plans, depreciation and amortization costs, capital structures and tax burdens. But please note that our non-GAAP results may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even if similar terms are used to identify such measures.

     A limitation of adjusted EBITDA is that it does not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues for our overall organization. Management evaluates the costs of such tangible and intangible assets through other financial measures such as capital expenditures. Management also evaluates the cost of capitalized tangible and intangible assets by analyzing returns provided on the capital dollars deployed. A further limitation of adjusted EBITDA is that it does not include stock compensation expense related to our workforce. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, net income or other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP.
