    From a press release:
    NEW YORK and DENVER, Aug. 8, 2008—Hearst Corporation announced today
    that it has acquired the Connecticut Post (Bridgeport, Conn.) and
    www.ConnPost.com, including seven non-daily newspapers, from
    MediaNews Group, Inc. The announcement was made jointly by George B.
    Irish, president of Hearst Newspapers, and Joseph (Jody) Lodovic IV,
    president of MediaNews Group. Terms were not disclosed.

    Hearst seems to be the only buyers in a sellers market. Thoughts? What kind of place is Hearst?
