Still a mystery?

Tribune says that:

THE mystery of why the New Statesman still hasn’t got a new editor several weeks after John Kampfner agreed to depart is not so mysterious after all. Its owner, Labour MP Geoffrey Robinson, has been too busy negotiating a deal to let 50 per cent of the magazine go to fellow millionaire, businessman Mike Danson, for an undisclosed sum.

But that was two weeks ago, at which point the magazine was reported to be interviewing hopefuls.
