In the latest development in the (potential) sale of the Observer to Tortoise Media, art appear that the Scott Trust (owner of the Guardian Group & guarantor of its political independence), is considering whether to sweeten the deal (in the face of striking jounos) with an investment in (currently loss making)Tortoise.... which is to say, this is starting to look less like a sale & a but more like a house clearance....

Its certainly not a done or failed deal yet!
