United Press International | September 18, 2005

[Prime Choice]

Meet the new boss...same as the old boss...

[rineaux]

$3 billion for fish wrapping paper. wow.

[BunnySlippers]

Amazing. And to think he used to be Barbra Streisand's hairdresser!

[Mike Darancette]

Going from worse to worser.

[Gay State Conservative]

Great idea,Dave...buy a major newspaper when that breed is
in its final,dying days.Are you motivated by the thought of turning its classified section into a great big "alternative dating" section?

[Plutarch]

Geffen probably wants The Times for the reporter hire and promotions casting couch.

[Mark]

David Geffen, 8 track music is coming back. Invest now!

[Mister Baredog]

He must have a lot of birdcages.

[edpc]

Newsroom must be full of young copy boys.

[Alter Kaker]

I think it would be fun to own a newspaper.

[Semper Paratus]

Geffen tried to arrest some Malibu beachgoers who had the nerve to suntan next to his property.

[FormerACLUmember]

And in other news, Geffens is considering investing in sailing rights for the Titanic.

[IronMan04]

While the Times' circulation has been dropping, the paper remains profitable and would have a price of $3 billion.

Just goes to show that there is no such thing as a Free Press.

[msnimje]

Does he think it is too RIGHT leaning?

[longtermmemmory]

It still runs in the black?

How?

Two sets of books?

[flashbunny]

I've got my eye on some buggy whip stocks!

[Navy Patriot]

I don't think the profits are that great, that's why Geffen is considering buying, he can get the Slimes cheap.

The current Rat owner is too stupid/stubborn to improve his product and rebuild circulation.

[Cate]

What does this guy look like? Isn't he the one that married Liza Minnelli and got beat up?
