[rumor, not fact!] Hasbro selling off WotC

[Glyfair]

If I didn't trust my friend and know how well placed his contact is I would have dismissed it. Still I'm treating it as rumor until I hear something more circumstantial.

For what it's worth, I heard from a reliable (if second or third hand) source a bit about the announcement. I heard nothing about the content, just the "buzzworthiness" and this seems appropriate.

Wow. All I can say is...well...very, very, very not true.

Try again.

But he didn't deny it has something to do with Morrus! Or buying Morrus...or...or...

DAMN! Someone else help me think up wild theories!

I think the rumor just got mangled in passing. In reality WotC is selling off Hasbro

They couldn't afford it. I think it will get sold to the x-ian right and they'll think that they can solve all teen angst by throwing it promptly in the dumpster

Eh, if it happens, it happens. I doubt this is the big news.

If it is, well, I'll burn that bridge when I come to it.

I think this same rumor comes up each year from reliable sources.

Do reliable sources drink a lot or something?

Well, they do need a little "lubrication" before they spill the beans...

Of course, the tend to spill other things, too.
