Exclusive | Jeff Bezos has been weighing a possible acquisition of CNBC: sources
By Alexandra Steigrad

Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos has been weighing a possible acquisition of CNBC, The Post has learned.
The 61-year-old e-commerce magnate has signaled interest to business associates in buying the cable network — home to “Squawk Box” and “Mad Money with Jim Cramer” — after it is spun off by NBCUniversal parent Comcast later this year, according to a person familiar with Bezos’ thinking.
CNBC would “align well with his interests,” said another source close to Bezos, who noted that the network could serve as a credible “neutral voice” in his media portfolio — a major plus following Bezos’s headaches as owner of the left-leaning Washington Post.
The Amazon founder has weathered months of headline-grabbing chaos at the iconic newspaper, which has been mired in losses, layoffs and staff protests over his moves to shift the paper’s coverage in a more centrist, pro-capitalist direction.
A rep for Bezos declined to comment.
Comcast, meanwhile, plans to spin off its struggling cable assets — which also include MSNBC, USA Network and E! — by the end of the year. CNBC will become part of a publicly-traded company called Versant, which will be run by a handful of NBCUniversal execs led by Chief Executive Mark Lazarus.
Sources close to Comcast told The Post that Bezos has not approached the cable giant headed by CEO Brian Roberts.
Another source close the situation said Versant plans to grow CNBC, not sell it.
It is unclear how much Bezos — currently ranked as the fourth richest person in the world with a net worth of $241 billion, according to Forbes — would be willing to pony up for CNBC.
Comcast does not break out financials for its cable assets but recently said the soon-to-be spun-off Versant generated about $7 billion in revenue last year.
Buying CNBC would be tricky. There is a two-year period in which Versant could not engage in selling major assets like CNBC or even the entire company without major tax implications, sources told The Post.
A source close to the situation said the company won’t likely jeopardize the tax-free nature of the spinoff.
Late last year, Comcast announced it would hive off its cable assets and keep NBCUniversal’s NBC broadcast TV network, “Real Housewives” home Bravo, its film and TV studios and theme parks, as well streaming service Peacock.
Bezos bought the Washington Post from the family of Katharine Graham in 2013 for $250 million, but the paper since has been dogged by steep losses as subscribers have fled.
The Amazon founder has been vacationing with his new bride Lauren Sanchez in the South of France. They were spotted Tuesday leaving glitzy beach club Le Club 55, not far from where the mogul’s mega-yacht, Koru, dropped anchor.
Bezos’ desire to expand his media empire follows a flurry of headlines in recent weeks that he was interested in buying Vogue magazine for Sanchez, a former TV reporter — or even the fashion glossy’s parent company Condé Nast.
Over the past year, Bezos and Washington Post CEO Will Lewis have tried to move the Beltway broadsheet more to the center — to the dismay of staffers.
Bezos’ decision to kill the newspaper’s endorsement of Kamala Harris for president shortly before the election in November sparked a revolving door of high-profile departures. More than 300,000 readers canceled their subscriptions.
The uproar continued after Bezos ordered the outlet’s opinion section to focus on “personal liberties and free markets” — a more neutral topic — rather than weighing in on politics and other issues.
The directive led to the resignation of Opinion Editor David Shipley, followed by the departure of longtime columnist Ruth Marcus. On Monday, Pulitzer Prize-winning opinion writer Jonathan Capehart announced he accepted a buyout.

独家消息 | 消息人士称,杰夫·贝索斯正在考虑可能收购 CNBC

《邮报》获悉,亚马逊亿万富翁杰夫·贝索斯一直在考虑可能收购 CNBC。
一位熟悉贝索斯想法的人士称,这位 61 岁的电子商务巨头已向商业伙伴表示有意收购这家有线电视网络——“Squawk Box”和“Mad Money with Jim Cramer”的所在地——此前 NBCUniversal 母公司康卡斯特将于今年晚些时候将其剥离。
一位接近贝索斯的另一位消息人士称,CNBC 将“与他的利益很好地契合”,他指出,该网络可以作为他媒体组合中可信的“中立声音”——这是贝索斯作为左倾《华盛顿邮报》的所有者所面临的头痛问题之后的一个主要优势。
这位亚马逊创始人一直在应对这家标志性报纸几个月来引人注目的混乱局面,该报一直深陷亏损、裁员和员工抗议之中,原因是他的举动是将该报的报道转向更中间派、亲资本主义的方向。
贝索斯的代表拒绝置评。
与此同时,康卡斯特计划在今年年底前剥离其陷入困境的有线电视资产——其中还包括 MSNBC、USA Network 和 E!。CNBC 将成为一家名为 Versant 的上市公司的
一部分,该公司将由少数几位 NBCUniversal 高管领导,首席执行官 Mark Lazarus 将担任负责人。
接近康卡斯特的消息人士告诉《邮报》,贝索斯尚未与由首席执行官 Brian Roberts 领导的这家有线电视巨头接洽。
另一位知情人士表示,Versant 计划发展 CNBC,而不是出售它。
Versant 拒绝置评。
目前尚不清楚贝索斯——据《福布斯》报道,他目前以 2410 亿美元的净资产位居世界第四大富豪——愿意为 CNBC 支付多少钱。
康卡斯特没有公布其有线电视资产的财务数据,但最近表示,即将剥离的 Versant 去年创造了约 70 亿美元的收入。
收购 CNBC 将会很棘手。消息人士告诉《邮报》,Versant 有两年的时间不能从事出售 CNBC 等主要资产,甚至整个公司,否则会产生重大的税务影响。
一位知情人士表示,该公司不太可能危及分拆的免税性质。
去年年底,康卡斯特宣布将剥离其有线电视资产,并保留 NBCUniversal 的 NBC 广播电视网络、“Real Housewives” 的所在地 Bravo、其电影和电视制片厂和主题公园,以及流媒体服务 Peacock。
贝索斯于 2013 年以 2.5 亿美元从 Katharine Graham 家族手中收购了《华盛顿邮报》,但自那以后,由于订阅者纷纷逃离,该报一直受到巨额亏损的困扰。
这位亚马逊创始人一直在法国南部与他的新婚妻子 Lauren Sanchez 度假。周二,他们被发现在豪华海滩俱乐部 Le Club 55 离开,距离这位大亨的超级游艇 Koru 抛锚的地方不远。
在贝索斯有兴趣以 2.5 亿美元收购《自由报》后,贝索斯对扩大其媒体帝国的渴望源于近几周来的一系列头条新闻,据报道,Bari Weiss 正寻求以 2.5 亿美元的价格出售该报。
过去一年,贝索斯和《华盛顿邮报》首席执行官 Will Lewis 一直试图将这家位于华盛顿特区的报纸更多地推向中心——这让员工感到沮丧。
贝索斯决定在 11 月大选前不久取消该报对 Kamala Harris 竞选总统的背书,引发了一系列高层离职。超过 30 万读者取消了订阅。
在贝索斯命令该媒体的观点版块专注于“个人自由和自由市场”——一个更加中立的话题——而不是权衡政治和其他问题后,骚动仍在继续。
这项指令导致观点版编辑 David Shipley 辞职,随后长期专栏作家 Ruth Marcus 离职。周一,普利策奖获奖观点作家 Jonathan Capehart 宣布他接受了一份买断协议。
