Todd Boehly Explores Joint Telegraph Bid and National World Acquisition

Discussions with David Montgomery and interest in National World signal potential media consolidation as Telegraph sale remains unresolved.

Todd Boehly and David Montgomery are in tentative talks about a joint bid for The Telegraph, potentially combining it with National World.
Boehly's Eldridge Media Holdings has expressed interest in acquiring National World, which is already subject to a £65.1 million approved bid by Media Concierge.
The Telegraph auction, managed by Raine Group and Robey Warshaw, continues as RedBird IMI seeks to sell the asset after regulatory challenges blocked its initial acquisition.
Dovid Efune, who previously had exclusivity on a Telegraph bid, remains interested despite earlier financing setbacks.
Regulatory and financial complexities, along with competing bids, highlight broader trends of media consolidation in the UK and US markets.
