Mediahuis, owner of Independent News & Media, is being tipped as a possible purchase of the Daily and Sunday Telegraph newspapers, now in the hands of a receiver. We asked a spokesman for the Belgian media group if it is, indeed, interested. “Mediahuis is aware of speculation in the market mentioning us as a potential acquirer of the Telegraph Media Group,” said An Steylemans, its head of group communications. “But as always, we do not comment on such speculations.
