Liberty Media is a huge conglomerate that also owns the Discovery Channel, USA Network and the STARZ movie channels, among other things, but we think that QVC runs the e-commerce side and would therefore take over BB.com. We (the investment bank that is the parent of non-profit FigureRX) have a chunk of their stock in our sports and media investment fund, so I guess we are part owners now too.
Weider survived being purchased by AMI, which is essentially known for trash magazines like the National Inquirer, although we've heard that they're losing faith in the Flex and M&F brands and may be cutting back“.
