trading.

ITEM 4.           PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

                  Item 4 of the Prior Schedule 13D is hereby amended and
restated in its entirety to read as follows:

                  The Reporting Person is the general partner of each of Sandler
Mezzanine Partners, L.P., Sandler Mezzanine Foreign Partners, L.P. and Sandler
Mezzanine T-E Partners, L.P. (collectively, the "Partnerships"). The
Partnerships hold, for investment purposes, warrants (the "Warrants"), which are
exercisable for shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, par
value $.001 per share ("Class B Common Stock"), of the Company. See Item 5.

                  Pursuant to (i) a U.S. Underwriting Agreement, dated March 28,
1996 (the "U.S. Underwriting Agreement"), among Smith Barney Inc., Painewebber
Incorporated, CIBC Wood Gundy Securities Corp. and BT Securities Corporation, as
representatives of the several U.S.

                                     Page 4
<PAGE>   5
underwriters (the "U.S. Underwriters"), the Company, the Partnerships and
certain other selling security holders and (ii) an International Underwriting
Agreement, dated March 28, 1996 (the "International Underwriting Agreement"),
among Smith Barney Inc., Painewebber International (U.K.) Ltd., CIBC Wood Gundy
Securities Corp., Bankers Trust International plc, as lead managers of the
several managers (the "International Underwriters"), the Company, the
Partnerships and certain other selling security holders, the Partnerships sold
to the U.S. Underwriters and the International Underwriters (collectively, the
"Underwriters") an aggregate of 28.77853 Warrants. The Underwriters immediately
exercised such Warrants for Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock (which
Class B Common Stock was then immediately converted into Class A Common Stock),
thereby acquiring 797,322 shares of Class A Common Stock. In connection with
such sale of Warrants, the Partnerships received an aggregate of $12,119,294.40.
A copy of each of the U.S. Underwriting Agreement and the International
Underwriting Agreement has been incorporated by reference as an exhibit to this
Schedule 13D.

                  Also pursuant to the U.S. Underwriting Agreement and the
International Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriters had the option, which
option expired unexercised at 9:00 p.m., New York City time on April 29, 1996,
to purchase an aggregate of 9.47468 Warrants.

                  Except as otherwise disclosed in this Schedule 13D, the
Reporting Person has not made any decision concerning its course of action with
respect to the Company. The Reporting Person could decide, depending on market
and other factors, to dispose of the Warrants (or the Class A Common Stock or
Class B Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants) beneficially owned
by it, to acquire additional shares of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common
Stock or Warrants, or to take any other available course of action. In this
regard, the Reporting Person intends to continuously review its investment in
the Company and may in the future determine to change its present plans and
proposals relating to the Company. In reaching any conclusion as to its future
course of action, the Reporting Person will take into consideration various
factors, including without limitation the Company's business and financial
condition and prospects, other developments concerning the Company, other
business opportunities available to the Reporting Person, developments with
respect to the business of the Reporting Person, developments in the Company's
industry generally, general economic conditions and money and stock market
conditions.

                  Other than as described in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting
Person does not have any present plans or proposals which relate to or would
result in: (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the
Company, or the disposition of the securities of the Company; (b) an
extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or
liquidation, involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or
transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company or of any of its
subsidiaries; (d) any change in the present board of directors or management of
the issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of
directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board; (e) any material
change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Company; (f) any
other material change in the Company's business or corporate structure; (g)
changes in the Company's charter,

                                     Page 5
<PAGE>   6
bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede
the acquisition of control of the Company by any person; (h) causing a class of
securities of the Company to be delisted from a national securities exchange or
to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a
registered national securities association; (i) a class of equity securities of
the Company becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to
Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act; or (j) any action similar to any of those
enumerated above.

                  Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the Reporting
Person reserves the right, depending on other relevant factors, to purchase
additional shares of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock, Warrants or
other securities of the Company, dispose of all or a portion of its holdings of
securities of the Company, or change its intention with respect to any and all
of the matters referred to in this Item.

                  See Item 6 for a discussion of certain arrangements between
the Reporting Person and the Company.

ITEM 5.           INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

                  Item 5 of the Prior Schedule 13D is hereby amended and
restated in its entirety to read as follows:

                           (a) The Reporting Person is the general partner of
         each of the Partnerships. The Reporting Person beneficially owns
         through the Partnerships the Warrants, which are presently exercisable
         for shares of Class A Common Stock and shares of Class B Common Stock.
         As of the date hereof, the Partnerships hold an aggregate of 85.80614
         Warrants, which are exercisable for an aggregate of approximately
         1,782,974 shares of Class A Common Stock and an aggregate of
         approximately 594,325 shares of Class B Common Stock. Each share of
         Class B Common Stock is convertible into one share of Class A Common
         Stock. As a result, the Reporting Person beneficially owns
         approximately 2,377,299 shares of Class A Common Stock. The Company's
         Prospectus, dated March 29, 1996, reports that, 38,521,854 shares of
         Class A Common Stock were outstanding as of April 2, 1996 (the date of
         consummation of a public offering by the Company of 13,500,000 shares
         of Class A Common Stock). Accordingly, if the Warrants held by the
         Partnerships were fully exercised and the shares of Class B Common
         Stock issuable to the Partnerships upon such exercise were converted
         into Class A Common Stock, the Reporting Person would beneficially own
         approximately 5.8% of the Company's Class A Common Stock.

                  The Class B Common Stock and the Class A Common Stock vote as
         a single class, with each share of Class B Common Stock entitled to 10
         votes per share and each share of Class A Common Stock entitled to one
         vote per share. Therefore, if the Warrants held by the Partnerships are
         exercised and the shares of Class B Common Stock issuable upon the
         exercise of the Warrants are not converted into shares of Class A

                                     Page 6
<PAGE>   7
         Common Stock, the Reporting Person would effectively have approximately
         6.8% voting power with respect to the Company's common stock.

                  (b) The Reporting Person as general partner of the
         Partnerships has sole power (i) to direct the voting of the 2,377,299
         shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants
         (and the conversion of Class B Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
         the Warrants) and (ii) to direct the disposition of the Warrants and
         any Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock issuable upon the
         exercise of the Warrants. The Reporting Person does not share with any
         person voting power or the power to dispose of the Warrants or any
         Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
         the Warrants.

                  (c) Except as described in Item 4 to this Schedule 13D, the
         Reporting Person, for itself and as the general partner of each of the
         Partnerships, has not effected any transactions during the past 60 days
         in respect of the Class A Common Stock.

                  (d) No person other than the Reporting Person, as the general
         partner of each of the Partnerships, is known to have the right to
         receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the
         proceeds from the sale of the Warrants or the shares of Class A Common
         Stock (issuable upon exercise of the Warrants), which are held by the
         Partnerships.

                  (e)      Item 5(e) of Schedule 13D is not applicable.

ITEM 6.           CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS
                  WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

                  Item 6 of the Prior Schedule 13D is hereby amended and
restated in its entirety to read as follows:

                  The Reporting Person is an affiliate of each of Michael J.
Marocco and John A. Kornreich, who are both directors of the Company.

                  The Partnerships, the Company, Paxson Enterprises, Inc.,
Second Crystal Diamond, L.P., and certain purchasers of the Company's preferred
stock and warrants entered into a Stockholders' Agreement, dated as of December
15, 1993 and as amended to date (as amended, the "Stockholders Agreement"),
pursuant to which (among other things) the Partnerships, under certain
conditions, had a limited right (which right was subsequently terminated as
described below) to require the Company to purchase any shares of the Class A
Common Stock and Class B Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants
held by the Partnerships. As described more fully below, the Stockholders
Agreement also provides that the Partnerships may make a registration demand
request of the Company for registration with the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("Commission") of all or part of the shares of Class A Common Stock
issued or issuable pursuant to the exercise of the Warrants. A copy of the

                                     Page 7
<PAGE>   8
Stockholders Agreement (including the registration rights provisions thereof)
has been filed as an exhibit to this Schedule 13D and the statements made herein
are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Stockholders Agreement which
is hereby incorporated by reference herein.

                  In connection with an amendment to the Stockholders Agreement
and a certain Exchange Agreement and Consent, dated as of December 22, 1994 (the
"Exchange Agreement"), among the Company, Second Crystal Diamond, L.P., Paxson
Enterprises, Inc., the Partnerships and certain other purchasers of the
Company's securities, certain call rights with respect to the Warrants held by
the Partnerships were terminated. A copy of the Exchange Agreement has been
incorporated by reference as an exhibit to this Schedule 13D and the statements
made herein are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Exchange
Agreement which is hereby incorporated by reference herein.

                  Under the terms of the Stockholders Agreement, the
Partnerships have redemption rights with respect to shares of the Company's 15%
Cumulative Compounding Redeemable Preferred Stock and Series B 15% Cumulative
Compounding Redeemable Preferred Stock (collectively, the "Senior Preferred
Stock") that can be triggered by a change in control of the Company, by certain
bankruptcy-related events or any failure to select Lowell W. Paxson as Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer of the Company in accordance with the succession
provisions contained in the Stockholders Agreement. In addition, subject to
certain limitations and only after December 15, 1999, the Partnerships have the
right to require any shares of Senior Preferred Stock to be purchased for cash
by the Company. If the Partnerships choose to exercise their put or similar
rights with respect to Senior Preferred Stock and the Company is unable to
purchase all of the shares on the applicable purchase date because of a material
contractual obligation that prohibits such a repurchase, the Company is required
to take reasonable actions to enable the Company to purchase the securities
subject to the put notice, and is required to engage a nationally recognized
investment banking firm in order to advise and assist the Company in connection
with such actions.

                  The Stockholders Agreement also provides the Partnerships with
the right of first refusal to purchase, subject to certain conditions, their pro
rata share of any new securities the Company may issue.

                  Pursuant to registration rights granted in the Stockholders
Agreement, certain holders of Senior Preferred Stock, including the
Partnerships, may require the Company to register with the Commission under and
in accordance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Securities Act"),
all or part of their "Registrable Shares" (as defined in the Stockholders
Agreement). Registrable Shares are defined to include shares issued or issuable
as "Warrant Shares" (which is defined in the Stockholders Agreement and includes
shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants) (as
adjusted for certain stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and
similar events) and any securities issued to the holders of Senior Preferred
Stock pursuant to their exercise of certain rights of first refusal. The Company
is required to effectuate a demand registration at the request of holders of
Senior Preferred Stock only if (i) it has been requested and consented to by the
holders of a majority of the Registrable

                                     Page 8
<PAGE>   9
Shares held by the holders of Senior Preferred Stock, and (ii) the shares as to
which registration is requested represent at least 25% of the aggregate
Registrable Shares held by holders of Senior Preferred Stock participating in
such registration. Generally, the holders of Senior Preferred Stock as a group
are entitled to three demand registrations.

                  If at any time the Company proposes to file on its own behalf
or on behalf of any holder or holders of any equity securities a registration
statement under the Securities Act (other than a registration statement on Form
S-4 or Form S-8 or any successor form for the registration of securities to be
offered pursuant to an employee benefit plan), then the Company must give notice
to the holders of Senior Preferred Stock and certain other stockholders of their
respective rights to include certain Registrable Shares held by such persons in
a piggy-back registration. The Company has the right to abandon any such
registration.

                  In the case of a demand or certain piggy-back registrations,
the Company will pay all registration expenses except underwriting discounts and
commissions and transfer taxes. In the case of a piggy-back registration, each
participating holder of Senior Preferred Stock and each of certain other
stockholders shall pay its pro rata share of the incremental registration filing
fees and shall pay all fees and disbursements of its counsel (other than a
single counsel for certain holders) incurred in connection therewith.

                  The registration rights provisions of the Stockholders
Agreement allocate Registrable Shares among participating holders of Senior
Preferred Stock and certain other stockholders if fewer than all the requested
shares are to be included in a registration statement. The registration rights
of such holders generally have priority over those of other parties that may
have registration rights.

                  Pursuant to an Agreement, dated as of March 26, 1996 (the
"Agreement"), by and among the Company, Second Crystal Diamond, L.P., Paxson
Enterprises, Inc., the Partnerships, National Union Fire Insurance Company of
Pittsburgh, PA, BT Investment Partners, Paribas North America, Inc. and Union
Venture Corporation, the Partnerships agreed to (i) terminate their rights to
put shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock to the Company, (ii)

15, 1996 (a year earlier than previously permitted) at a price of 105% of the
liquidation price thereof, (iv) permitted the Company to issue 2,000,000
additional shares of stock (or options to purchase the same), (v) permitted the
Company to issue 125,000 shares of common stock (or options to purchase the
same) at an exercise price of $3.42 per share, (vi) deleted certain restrictions
on the Company's ability to acquire businesses in consideration for stock of the
Company and (vii) modified certain rights of the parties to register common
stock of the Company. A copy of the Agreement has been incorporated by reference
