As the media industry shifts in an ever-changing landscape, billionaires have dabbled in buying newspapers and other mainstream media outlets, so Adelson’s purchase on the surface wasn’t unusual.
The publisher of the CT paper is Michael Schroeder, who also happens to be the manager of a DE company formed to facilitate the purchase of the Review-Journal for the Adelsons.

“I still think it was a waste of time, but now I wonder what really was behind it”, Hengel said at the time to the Review-Journal. That ended speculation about the identity of the unknown entity that paid $140 million for the Review-Journal.
