Thanks Tripp, I'm curious if you think SiriusXM leaked the payment news as some suggested they leaked the BK to gain leverage? Guess it's just speculation...

Long siri
Liberty Media Corp. is in talks with Sirius about possibly investing in the company, a move that could fend off Ergen.
But the DirecTV Group Inc., a Dish rival controlled by Liberty Chairman John Malone, is not involved in the negotiations, according to a person close to the situation. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to talk about the negotiations. Liberty’s participation in the talks was reported earlier by The Wall Street Journal.

This article seems to be contradicting what the NY Post has said. Stating that "But the DirecTV Group Inc., a Dish rival controlled by Liberty Chairman John Malone, is not involved in the negotiations... I could just be interpreting this wrong due to being tired!!!

I've been researching the Post author Peter Lauria.
According to his Linkedin profile, his title at the Post is Entertainment Business Reporter and his duties are: Cover the business issues and decisions surrounding media and entertainment companies such as Time Warner, Viacom, Disney, News Corp., CBS, Warner Music Group, NBC and others.
In addition to the breaking news he posted last night, there were two other stories during the week:

http://www.nypost.com/seven/02112009...v_i_154659.htm
Note that he only started covering it once Liberty got involved, so I am guessing his source is someone there. He seems to write on rumors a lot, but generally has his facts straight.
and here's another article of his today. Not sure if it has been posted today:
http://www.nypost.com/seven/02142009...rty_155062.htm
This quote is interesting:
"The beautiful thing about Liberty is that one side of its brain is looking at this like a distressed bond investor and if they can make a little money that's fine," the source said. "The other side of its brain is looking at this like a strategic buyer, and if they can get access to the assets, that's fine, too."
man the yahoo basher's are funny as hell, look what they did to brandon'snews article from today haha

Yeah it's a cesspool there .. someone this morning posted a fake Washington Post story that siri had declared Bk.
Good for entertainment, but not much else.
lauria's 2nd article - cited here by DLITE, was posted
on ny post online at 2:02 a.m., 7 hours after his initial
post - albeit on a fri night - so he (lauria) is not only
burning the midnight oil, he's doing it on a weekend no less.
you can't say the man isn't putting in the time on this
brandon matthews has posted a new article in
the NEWS section -
