Eyeing and vying for three media outfits up for sale!

A story that has gone viral says that the ownership of at least three leading private media institutions is about to change hands.


One of the three institutions carrying the ‘on sale’ tag is an electronic one and the other two are entirely print. The ‘competent authority’ of two of these institutions is said to be a one-time powerful political figure. Incidentally, it is these two institutions – one electronic committed to promoting sports and the other a print one, run by the same owners – that are now attracting most bids, they say.  

Meanwhile, the owners of the electronic media institution ‘on sale’, have decided to accept the bid made by a media boss who had been a ‘third eye’ to the former strongman. This means the Green politico who was eyeing this media institution is no longer in the scene.  However, so far no bid has been accepted for the print media institution run by the same owners, they say. Meanwhile, a rumour making rounds says that a certain Ministerial one is set to buy a print media institution that took off the ground quite recently
