This morning, DMGT made the announcement below to the City:

"CVC Capital Partners ('CVC') have been leading a consortium, including DMGT, which has been having discussions with Lazard relating to the sale of certain assets of Hollinger International. Those discussions have now terminated.

DMGT has enjoyed a good business relationship with CVC, even though it was unsuccessful on this occasion."
