The latest move to grab the headlines was in December when it bought the South 皇冠体育app Morning Post, the Hong Kong newspaper, for $266 million.

The move echoed Amazon founder Jeff Bezos' 2012 acquisition of the Washington Post, although he made the investment privately and not through his company.

Many media commentators certainly have also highlighted the fact that the company's shares, after hitting a high of $120 shortly after the float, are now trading just below the IPO initial price of $68.
