(AdPlayers.ro, Iulian Toma)
Dow Jones & Company a batut palma cu News Corporation. Cele doua trusturi au semnat o intelegere definitiva, dupa ce Familia Bancroft care controleaza aproximativ 37% din voturile in companie au agreeat tranzactia care, potrivit ambelor companii, are o valoare estimata la 5,6 Mld. USD.
DowJones include foarte multe marci si servicii de business, dar steagul trustului il reprezinta The Wall Street Journal, care a reprezentat si drapelul tranzactiei. Fondat in urma cu 118 ani, cea mai importanta publicatie de afaceri din lume s-a nascut pe 8 Iulie 1889,. Vedeta grupului de companii are numai in SUA 1.7 millioane de exemplare vandute, acoperind cei mai importanti oameni de afaceri, investitori, dar si lideri politici.
Tirajul vandut global este insa cu mult mai mare, atingand mai mult de 2,6 Milioane de exemplare tiparite si distribuite online. Parte a francizei internationale mai sunt The Wall Street Journal Asia, The Wall Street Journal Europe and The Wall Street Journal Online (www.wsj.com), care potrivit companiei, cu 931.000 de abonati platitori pentru site, reprezinta cea mai mare comunitate de oameni care platesc stiri pe Internet.
Intenational, The Wall Street Journal are o echipa de stiri de 750 de oameni dintr-un total de 1.800. Cotidianul de afaceri este citit in medie 65 de minute pe zi, cu mult mai mult decat media oricarui alt cotidian de pe piata. Oamenii care citesc cotidianul au in medie venituri de 210.000 USD pe an, iar media cumulata a bogatiei in gospadarie este de 2,5 Mil. USD.
Potrivit aceleeasi surse, tranzactia implica infiintarea unui comitet special de 5 membri pentru asigurarea continuitatii integritatii editroiale si jurnalistice si independenta publicatiilor si serviciilor Dow Jones. Din acesta vor face parte Louis Boccardi, Thomas Bray, Jennifer Dunn, Jack Fuller si Nicholas Negroponte. Intelegerea mai cuprinde numirea unuia dintre membrii Familiei Bancroft sau o alta prsoana desemnata de catre familie in Board-ul Director al NewsCorporation.
