New boss bling

Given the relative slowburning hysteria in the mediabistro office — and at various points on the Web — surrounding this morning’s sale of our mothership, we thought we’d put the purchase price in a context New York media machers can understand:

  • 383,000 shares of Dow Jones (or a 0.4% stake)

  • 23 million games of Skee-Ball
  • 11,500,000 Magnolia cupcakes (they’re back in business, by the way)
  • A-Rod (one season)
  • 8,365,636 Arnold Palmers at Balthazar
  • One third-place network news anchor
  • mediabistro.com

Luckily for us, Jupitermedia chose latter.
