Circuit City Shareholder Launches Proxy Fight; Slams Blockbuster Rejection

Circuit City has another mess to deal with. In addition to fending off Blockbuster (NYSE: BBI), it now has a proxy fight on its hand.

Newspaper Roundup: Goodwill Writedowns; Harbinger-NYTCo; Media General Warns

Lee Enterprises: E&P takes a look at the goodwill writedowns across the newspaper industry, as acquisitions have consistently failed to live up to plans. Every time there’s a goodwill writedown, the company is sure to note that it’s a non-cash charge and doesn’t effect operations, but it’s still indicative of a failed strategy. Lee is one publisher that hasn’t taken a writedown; this despite the fact that the company is a sliver of what it was worth when it acquired Pulitzer for $1.4 billion. From its latest 10-Q: “The Company analyzed the recoverability of such assets as of December 30, 2007, due primarily to the difference between its stock price and the per share carrying value of its net assets.

Sony apologizes for lackluster year

I like Sony, as a game company at least (uh oh). Know why? They're a company that doesn't binge itself so much on marketing and PR that they won't admit their weaknesses. Too many interviews feature journalists asking the same tired questions and the company president or developer or whatever answering with the same tired answers.

But typically at this point we just get tired answers anyway, marketing psychobabble the company owner or whoever was told to say if any 'tough questions' came up. So that's why I like Sony. This isn't to say they're completely devoid of marketing psychobabble, cause I've seen it, but the fact they can admit where they've gone wrong and where
