Item 1.                                Security and Issuer
This Amendment No. 63 to Schedule 13D on the Class A Common Stock of Media General, Inc. (the “Issuer”) is being filed on behalf of the undersigned to amend the Schedule 13D, as amended (the “Schedule 13D”) which was originally filed on February 29, 1989.  Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the same meanings as set forth in the Schedule 13D.

Item 2.                                Identity and Background
This statement is being filed by Mario J. Gabelli (“Mario Gabelli”) and various entities which he
directly or indirectly controls or for which he acts as chief investment officer.  These entities, except for LICT Corporation (“LICT”), engage in various aspects of the securities business, primarily as investment adviser to various institutional and individual clients, including registered investment companies and pension plans, and as general partner of various private investment partnerships.  Certain of these entities may also make investments for their own accounts.
The foregoing persons in the aggregate often own beneficially more than 5% of a class of a particular issuer.  Although several of the foregoing persons are treated as institutional investors for purposes of reporting their beneficial ownership on the short-form Schedule 13G, the holdings of those who do not qualify as institutional investors may exceed the 1% threshold presented for filing on Schedule 13G or implementation of their investment philosophy may from time to time require action which could be viewed as not completely passive.  In order to avoid any question as to whether their beneficial ownership is being reported on the proper form and in order to provide greater investment flexibility and administrative uniformity, these persons have decided to file their beneficial ownership reports on the more detailed Schedule 13D form rather than on the short-form Schedule 13G and thereby to provide more expansive disclosure than may be necessary.
(a), (b) and (c) - This statement is being filed by one or more of the following persons: GGCP, Inc.  formerly known as Gabelli Group Capital Partners, Inc. (“GGCP”), GAMCO Investors, Inc. formerly known as Gabelli Asset Management Inc. (“GBL”), Gabelli Funds, LLC (“Gabelli Funds”), GAMCO Asset Management Inc. formerly known as GAMCO Investors, Inc. (“GAMCO”), Gabelli Advisers, Inc. (“Gabelli Advisers”), Gabelli Securities, Inc. (“GSI”), Gabelli & Company, Inc. (“Gabelli & Company”), MJG Associates, Inc. (“MJG Associates”), Gabelli Foundation, Inc. (“Foundation”), Mario Gabelli, and LICT.  Those of the foregoing persons signing this Schedule 13D are hereafter referred to as the “Reporting Persons”.
GGCP makes investments for its own account and is the parent company of GBL.  GBL, a public company listed on the New York Stock Exchange, is the parent company for a variety of companies engaged in the securities business, including those named below.
GAMCO, a wholly-owned subsidiary of GBL, is an investment adviser registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (“Advisers Act”).  GAMCO is an investment manager providing discretionary managed account services for employee benefit plans, private investors, endowments, foundations and others.

Item 5.                                Interest In Securities Of The Issuer

(a) The aggregate number of Securities to which this Schedule 13D relates is 4,601,486 shares, representing 20.87% of the 22,053,230 shares outstanding.   This latter number is arrived at by adding the number of shares reported as being outstanding in the Issuer’s most recently filed Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 (22,052,850) to the number of shares which would be receivable by GIL if it were to actually convert all of the Issuer’s Class B shares held by it (380 shares) into the Class A Common Stock of the Issuer.  The Reporting Persons beneficially own those Securities as follows:

George L. Mahoney, Esq.
Secretary
Media General, Inc.
333 E. Franklin Street
Richmond, VA 23219


Dear Mr. Mahoney:

    We understand that F. Jack Liebau, Jr. has submitted his name for consideration to be nominated for election to the Board of Directors of Media General, Inc. (“Media General”) at its 2008 Annual Meeting.

    As you know, GAMCO Asset Management Inc. (“GAMCO”) for a long time has beneficially owned on behalf of its investment advisory clients a significant percentage of Media General Class A common stock.  Currently, GAMCO is the beneficial owner of approximately 2,966,486 shares of Media General Class A common stock, representing approximately 13.5% of the outstanding shares of the Class A common stock.

    GAMCO strongly supports the nomination of Mr. Liebau for election to the Board.  As an analyst following the newspaper industry and media stocks and as an investment manager, Mr. Liebau would bring valuable expertise to the Board.  In addition, we believe that Mr. Liebau possesses the highest standards of integrity, commitment and independence of thought and judgment, and that he will be able to dedicate sufficient time, energy and attention to ensure the diligent performance of his duties as a Director. Therefore, we urge the Nominating & Governance Committee of the Board of Directors to nominate Mr. Liebau for election to the Board at Media General’s 2008 Annual Meeting.

    There are no arrangements or understandings between GAMCO and Mr. Liebau or any other person or persons pursuant to which Mr. Liebau is being recommended by GAMCO.  We ask that you share this letter with the Nominating & Governance Committee.
 
Sincerely,



James E. McKee
