New York, NY - December 20, 2005 - WE: Women's Entertainment, the only cable network dedicated to helping women connect to one another and the world around them, announced today that Nestle's Lean Cuisine has signed on to sponsor WE's Cinematherapy: Best Friends, movies featuring women and their relationships with their best friends.

As part of the sponsorship agreement, Nestle's Lean Cuisine receives on-air presence through customized billboards and tagged tune-ins driving viewers to the premiere of each movie. They also receive on-line presence at www.we.tv, touting a printable discount coupon for $1.00 off of five Lean Cuisine products.

"We are so pleased to be able to offer Nestle's Lean Cuisine access to their very important demographic of women," said Arlene Manos, President, Rainbow National Network Advertising Sales. "Cinematheraphy reinforces WE's commitment to original programming and to position WE as the television destination for women."

"Best Friends" is a special Cinematheraphy event, featuring WE's signature Cinematherapy host Chuck Nice, bringing women together on his red couch to chat about what they love best: movies, relationships, and what it means to be friends. The following "best friend" films will be featured during the event: How Stella Got Her Grove Back on December 29, Untamed Heart on January 5. The Truth About Cats and Dogs on January 12, Angie on January 19 and ending with Nine to Five the evening of January 26.
