• Is the Tribune trying to tell us something?

    Below is a scan of Richard Delevan’s column from the main section of today’s Sunday Tribune (final edition) – what’s of interest is the e-mail address at the bottom:

    Way back when there were rumours that The Irish Times were about to pounce on a floundering Sunday Tribune in a bold move into the Sunday market – that’s why IN&M made the defensive maneuver of buying into it first, something which began with an attempted takeover and ended with IN&M making itself central to the Tribune through a series of loans.

    Well maybe, just maybe, The Irish Times (which has been on a spending spree lately) has decided to renew its takeover attempt and is now buying the paper one columnist at a time!
