I was talking to someone the other day and she was saying that Conde Nast was looking to buy another publisher, with a portfolio differential to their own, is there any truth to this?

I know it's hard to believe, but we're not the only other publisher in the world. Perhaps they're planning a takeover of Meade Publishing...

Given that Haymarket is a private, family-owned company, your share portfolio can remain untroubled...

I should point out that I didn't say "It's not true", I said "how the **** would I know?"
