Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	INCOME TAXES At the end of each interim period, the Company makes its best estimate of the annual expected effective income tax rate and applies that rate to its ordinary year-to-date earnings or loss. The income tax provision or benefit related to significant, unusual, or extraordinary items, if applicable, that will be separately reported or reported net of their related tax effects are individually computed and recognized in the interim period in which they occur. In addition, the effect of changes in enacted tax laws or rates, tax status, judgment on the realizability of a beginning-of-the-year deferred tax asset in future years or the liabilities for uncertain tax positions is recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs. The computation of the annual expected effective income tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, the expected pre-tax income (or loss) for the year, projections of the proportion of income (and/or loss) earned and taxed in foreign jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences, and the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets generated in the current year. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision or benefit for income taxes may change as new events occur, more experience is acquired, additional information is obtained or our tax environment changes. To the extent that the expected annual effective income tax rate changes during a quarter, the effect of the change on prior quarters is included in income tax provision in the quarter in which the change occurs. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $19.4 million and $43.3 million, respectively. The income tax benefit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 is due primarily to the effect of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-09 on January 1, 2017. Under ASU No. 2016-09, excess tax benefits generated by the settlement or exercise of stock-based awards of $57.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 are recognized as a reduction to the income tax provision rather than as an increase to additional paid-in capital. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded an income tax benefit for continuing operations of $96.7 million and $95.2 million, respectively, which, in each case, represents an effective income tax rate of 34%. The effective tax rate each period is lower than the statutory rate of 35% due primarily to the non-deductible portion of the goodwill impairment at the Publishing segment, partially offset by state taxes. The Company recognizes interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the income tax provision. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company has accrued $3.0 million and $2.6 million, respectively, for the payment of interest. At both June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company has accrued $1.7 million for penalties. The Company is routinely under audit by federal, state, local and foreign authorities in the area of income tax. These audits include questioning the timing and the amount of income and deductions and the allocation of income and deductions among various tax jurisdictions. The Internal Revenue Service is currently auditing the Company’s federal income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2010 through 2012. The statute of limitations for the years 2010 through 2012 has been extended to June 30, 2018. Various other jurisdictions are open to examination for tax years beginning with 2009. Income taxes payable include reserves considered sufficient to pay assessments that may result from examination of prior year tax returns. Changes to reserves from period to period and differences between amounts paid, if any, upon resolution of audits and amounts previously provided may be material. Differences between the reserves for income tax contingencies and the amounts owed by the Company are recorded in the period they become known. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, are $41.4 million and $41.0 million, respectively. If unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2017 are subsequently recognized, $38.0 million, net of related deferred tax assets and interest, would reduce income tax expense. The comparable amount as of December 31, 2016 was $37.7 million. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that its unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by $2.6 million by June 30, 2018, due to expirations of statutes of limitations; $2.4 million of which would reduce the income tax provision.

At the end of each interim period, the Company makes its best estimate of the annual expected effective income tax rate and applies that rate to its ordinary year-to-date earnings or loss. The income tax provision or benefit related to significant, unusual, or extraordinary items, if applicable, that will be separately reported or reported net of their related tax effects are individually computed and recognized in the interim period in which they occur. In addition, the effect of changes in enacted tax laws or rates, tax status, judgment on the realizability of a beginning-of-the-year deferred tax asset in future years or the liabilities for uncertain tax positions is recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs.
