My Predictions

Will Michael Bloomberg buy the New York Times by the end of the year?

Current forecast: 18% chance
Combining all predictions, the current forecast is that this is 18% likely to happen (unchanged in last 1 day)

The long running rumor has surfaced again in this Newsweek Article: http://www.newsweek.com/id/132852/page/1

With the redesign of the WSJ happening, is it possible the rumor will finally prove to be true?

Settled yes if Bloomberg or a company he has majority stake in buys the NYT or gains ownership through a parent company.


Settlement details: Settled yes if Bloomberg or a company he has majority stake in buys the NYT or gains ownership through a parent company.
