Thank you so much for posting this.

Motolla is clearly suspect. Over at MJJF, some members were defending Motolla there and derailing from important talk about him. I don't understand why.

this is quite an interesting article.

And from the Sony book I read by John Nathan, they also mentioned that most of Sony in america is Jewish.

However, this article does not mention Thome. That man has a lot to do with all this as well. It was Thome whom Michael said had complete control of his accounts.

The fact alone that Mottola came out on July 7 2009 and pronounced himself "gatekeeper" of Michael's music --in fact he said "we"--is very telling of whose back he has and on whose name he's acting.
It was months before the estate signed the Sony deal, but apparently Mottola was an insider and was already made privy of the upcoming plans.

Have you guys seen this. It is the first time at least for me that seems to have a lot of missing pieces to this puzzle. Start at the begining and read, The reader claims to have known MJ, but more important they make some amazing links. They answer a lot of questions that I had.

As expected, former News Corp exec Mike Lang was named CEO of the new Miramax Films now owned by construction magnate Ron Tutor and Tom Barrack's Santa Monica-based Colony Capital (led by former Disney CFO Richard Nanula), and Qatar Holding. Colony Capital's Nanula will be the key person picking a CEO and CFO from the usual roster of experienced movie executives. Barrack has said frequently that Miramax didn't want to end up hiring someone who'll use distribution as an "excuse" to go into production. "Because that would be disastrous."

TOLDJA! Done Deal: Disney Sells Miramax To Ron Tutor & Colony Capital For $660M

Miramax Deal "95%" Done
Colony Capital Now Leading Ron Tutor's Miramax Negotiations
Back on July 8th I was the first to tell you that construction magnate Ron Tutor and Tom Barrack's Santa Monica-based Colony Capital led by former Disney CFO Richard Nanula had joined together to negotiate the acquisition of Miramax from Disney. And so that deal finally gets done tonight after so many frustrating and annoying stops and starts, and bidders and runners-up. (Announcement below.) Still, this was relativity speedy considering that Colony Capital only a month ago entered the deal as a big equity provider matching Tutor's equity of several hundred million dollars. So I have to ask: Are bidding war losers Harvey and Bob Weinstein crying into their beer tonight?
All in all, $660 million is a very good price for the company because film library values have taken a hit as DVD/video has flattened. True, Disney once placed a sky-high $1.2 billion pricetag on the Miramax library. The studio hoped to get around $800 million, then $700 million, and this number comes awfully close to that. The final figure exceeds the $625M-$650M which the Weinstein brothers/Ron Burkle/Fortress-Colbeck partnership seemed ready to pay until talks broke down. Due diligence showed that Miramax is sitting on a lot of cash, as much as $300M in receivables. Also, I've learned that Disney stands to make even more because ... Read More »
