SCHEDULE 13D

SCHEDULE 13D

This Schedule 13D (this “Schedule 13D”) relates to shares of 6.25% Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Preferred Stock”), and the Class A Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Class A Common Stock”), of Emmis Communications Corporation, an Indiana corporation (the “Issuer” or the “Company”). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at One Emmis Place, 40 Monument Circle, Suite 700, Indianapolis, Indiana 46204.

This Schedule 13D is filed on behalf of the DJD Group, LLLP, a Florida limited liability limited partnership (the “DJD Group”) and Don DeFosset, its general partner (the “General Partner” or “Mr. DeFosset”). The DJD Group is a family-owned privately-held limited liability limited partnership which invests in various types of securities. Mr. DeFosset, a citizen of the United States whose principal occupation consists of serving as the managing general partner of the DJD Group. The principal executive offices of the DJD Group, and the business address of the General Partner is 4221 W. Boy Scout Boulevard, Suite 1000, Tampa, FL 33607-5780. The DJD Group and the General Partner are sometimes referred to collectively herein as the “Reporting Persons.”

During the past five years, none of the Reporting Persons has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and similar misdemeanors) and none has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which any such person was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, Federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

The DJD Group purchased the Preferred Stock of the Issuer as identified in Item 5 below over a period of time commencing on October 12, 2009 for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $1,972,472. The purchase price was paid out of the DJD Group’s own investment capital which, in turn, was provided out of the personal funds of Mr. DeFosset. No payments were made to or by either of the Reporting Persons in connection with the Lock-Up Agreement described in Items 4 and 6 of this Schedule 13D.

On December 1, 2011, the Company launched a modified “Dutch auction” tender offer to purchase up to $6,000,000 in value of Preferred Stock at a price per share not less than $12.50 and not greater than $15.56 (the “Tender Offer”). The Tender Offer is currently scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on December 30, 2011, unless extended. Depending on the final purchase price of the offer, if the offer is fully subscribed, the Company could purchase between 385,604 and 480,000 shares of the Preferred Stock representing approximately 14.8% to 18.4% of the issued and outstanding shares of Preferred Stock as of December 1, 2011. Prior to commencement of the Tender Offer, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements structured as “total return swaps” (the “Purchase Agreements”) with certain holders of the Preferred Stock representing a total of 1,484,679 shares of Preferred Stock (the “Purchased Shares”). Under the terms of the Purchase Agreements, the Purchased Shares remain outstanding and eligible to be voted, and the Company obtains the authority to direct the voting of the Purchased Shares.

Furthermore, as disclosed in the Offer to Purchase filed by the Company on December 1, 2011, if the Company is able to obtain the ability to direct the vote of at least 66 ²/3% of the issued and outstanding shares of Preferred Stock following the completion of the Tender Offer, the Company may elect to, among other

things, amend or eliminate various rights of the Preferred Stock, including but not limited to: (i) reducing or eliminating the liquidation preference of the Preferred Stock, (ii) removing the ability of the holders of Preferred Stock to require the Company to repurchase all or any portion of such holders’ Preferred Stock upon a change of control or certain going-private transactions, (iii) removing the Company’s obligation to pay to holders of the Preferred Stock the amount of dividends in respect of their shares of Preferred Stock that are currently accrued and unpaid, (iv) changing the designation of the Preferred Stock from “Cumulative” to “Non-Cumulative” such that dividends or distributions on the Preferred Stock shall cease to accrue, (v) eliminating the rights of the holders of the Preferred Stock to nominate directors to the Company’s Board of Directors as a result of arrearages in dividends, and (vi) eliminating the restrictions on the Company’s ability to pay dividends or make distributions on its Class A Common Stock and its Class B Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share, prior to paying accrued and unpaid dividends or distributions on the Preferred Stock. If the above-described amendments are made, the market value of the Preferred Stock remaining outstanding will be materially and adversely affected, and the Company may engage in various actions that are currently prohibited or limited by the various terms and provisions of the Preferred Stock.

On December 12, 2011 Zazove Associates, LLC, Corre Opportunities Fund, L.P., Kevan A. Fight and DJD Group, LLLP (collectively, the “Locked-Up Holders”) entered into a written lock-up agreement (the “Lock-Up Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things, each of them agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to sell, assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, including, without limitation, by any “total return swap” arrangement or derivative transaction, or any other agreement, arrangement or understanding which could cause the ability to direct the vote of the Preferred Stock to be transferred or otherwise restricted, (i) any Preferred Stock or (ii) any option, interest in or right to acquire any Preferred Stock, in either case absent the prior written consent of at least two Locked-Up Holders that hold at least two thirds of the Preferred Stock subject to the Lock-Up Agreement and unless the transferee thereof agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of the Lock-Up Agreement by executing and delivering a joinder to all Locked-Up Holders.

The description of the Lock-Up Agreement in this Schedule 13D is qualified in its entirety by reference to full text of the Lock-Up Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as an Exhibit and is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

The Reporting Persons acquired and continue to hold the shares reported herein for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons may from time to time engage the Company, its representatives or other relevant parties in discussions regarding the Tender Offer and other related matters relevant to the Reporting Persons’ investment in the Company, and may discuss with such parties alternatives to such Tender Offer. Depending on market conditions and other factors that the Reporting Persons may deem material to their investment decisions, the Reporting Persons may sell all or a portion of their shares, or may purchase additional securities of the Issuer, on the open market or in a private transaction, in each case to the extent permitted by the Lock-up Agreement. Except as described in this Schedule 13D, neither of the Reporting Persons has any plans or proposals that relate to or would result in: (i) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Company, or the disposition of securities of the Company; (ii) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, organization or liquidation, involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (iii) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company or of any of its subsidiaries; (iv) change in the present board of directors or the management of the Company; (v) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Company; (vi) any other material change in the Company’s business or corporate structure; (vii) changes in the Company’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions that may impede the acquisition of control of the Company by any person; (viii) 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; (ix) 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 (x) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

Page 5 of 8 Pages

The Reporting Persons continually analyze and evaluate their investment in the Issuer and reserve the right to change their intentions with respect to any of the foregoing.

(a) The Reporting Persons beneficially own 76,810 shares of Preferred Stock, representing approximately 2.94% of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock of the Issuer (based on 2,612,420 shares of Preferred Stock as disclosed as outstanding in the Issuer’s Offer to Purchase included as an Exhibit to its Schedule TO-1/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 1, 2011).

Because the Preferred Stock currently is convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock, the Reporting Persons also are deemed under Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i)(B) of the Exchange Act to have beneficial ownership of the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock. Each share of Preferred Stock currently is convertible in 2.44 shares of Class A Common Stock. Accordingly, as of the date of this Schedule 13D, the 76,810 shares of Preferred Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons are convertible into approximately 187,416 shares of Class A Common Stock, representing 0.56% of the 33,691,082 shares of Class A Common Stock deemed outstanding pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i) of the Exchange Act (based on 33,503,666 shares of Class A Common Stock as disclosed as outstanding in the Issuer’s Offer to Purchase included as an Exhibit to its Schedule TO-1/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 1, 2011).

(b) The DJD Group has sole voting and dispositive power over the shares of such Preferred Stock held directly by it, as well as over any Class A Common Stock that may be issued upon conversion of the Preferred Stock. Because the General Partner has the sole responsibility and authority to make and execute all voting and investment decisions on behalf of the DJD Group, he may be deemed to have the sole voting and dispositive power over all shares owned by the DJD Group. However, prior to any conversion of the Preferred Stock, neither of the Reporting Persons has sole or shared voting or dispositive power over any of the Class A Common Stock.

Other than as described herein, neither of the Reporting Persons has the right to vote or dispose of any shares of Preferred Stock or Class A Common Stock.

(c) Neither of the Reporting Persons has effected any transactions in Preferred Stock during the past 60 days.

(d) Other than the Reporting Persons, no person is known to have the right to receive dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, the Reporting Persons’ shares of Preferred Stock (or, if such Preferred Stock is converted as described above, the resulting Class A Common Stock).

(e) Not applicable.

Other than the Lock-Up Agreement, the Reporting Persons have no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) with respect to any securities of the Issuer.

Pursuant to Rule 13d-1(k) promulgated under the Exchange Act, the Reporting Persons have entered into an agreement with respect to the joint filing of this statement, and any amendment or amendments thereto.

Page 6 of 8 Pages

By virtue of the relationship between and among the Reporting Persons, as described in Item 2, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be a “group” under the Federal securities laws. Except as otherwise set forth in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons expressly disclaim beneficial ownership of any of the shares of Preferred Stock or Class A Common Stock and the filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission, for the purposes of Sections 13(d) and 13(g) or under any provision of the Exchange Act or the rules promulgated thereunder or for any other purpose, that the Reporting Persons is a beneficial owner of any such shares.

Joint Expenses will be for the ratable account of the Locked-Up Holders in accordance with the percentage of the Preferred Shares beneficially owned by them as of the date of the designation of such expenses as Joint Expenses (disregarding, for this purpose, any shares held by another Locked-Up Holder that may be deemed to be beneficially owned solely by virtue of the Locked-Up Holders being deemed a “group” within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b) under the Exchange Act). Amounts incurred by a Locked-Up Holder with respect to Joint Expenses in excess of its ratable share will be reimbursed by the other Locked-Up Holders on demand upon presentation of appropriate supporting documentation. Other than Joint Expenses, each Locked-Up Holder shall bear its own costs and expenses in connection with this Agreement and its investment in Emmis.

18. Liability. No Locked-Up Holder nor any of its affiliates, or any of their respective partners, members, employees, counsel, agents or representatives shall be liable to any other Locked-Up Holder or its affiliates, in each case for any loss, liability, damage or expense arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, any Schedule 13D or any Form 3, 4 or 5, or amendment thereto, filed by any Locked-Up Holder or its affiliates, or the actions or transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except to the extent such loss, liability, damage or expense is caused by such party’s actual and material breach of the express provisions of this Agreement, gross negligence, fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct.

19. No Third Party Beneficiaries. Unless expressly stated herein, this Agreement shall be solely for the benefit of the parties hereto and no other person or entity.

20. Specific Performance. It is understood and agreed by each of the parties hereto that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by any party and each non-breaching party shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach.

21. Further Acknowledgement. The parties to this Agreement agree and acknowledge that certain Locked-Up Holders are executing this Agreement as investment advisors for, and on behalf of, certain investment funds and institutional separate accounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by executing this Agreement, each such Locked-Up Holder executing this Agreement in such capacity further represents and warrants to the other Locked-Up Holders that (i) it has the requisite power and authority to agree to all of the matters set forth in this Agreement with respect to the Emmis securities such Locked-Up Holder beneficially owns in its capacity as investment advisor with discretionary authority, (ii) it has the full authority on behalf of all such funds and accounts to vote, transfer and hold all the Emmis securities such Locked-Up Holder beneficially owns, and (iii) it has all requisite power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to perform its respective obligations under, this Agreement, on behalf of each such fund.
