DID CONDE NAST REALLY BUY JEZEBEL?

That’s what Nick Denton said yesterday when he announced that Conde Nast was buying Jezebel.com. 

A spokesperson confirmed to Portfolio’s Jeff Bercovici that it was a total gag by saying, “This is wishful thinking but it’s not true.”

Of course, it was an April Fools’ Day joke but it got a shit load of attention.

And perhaps enough attention that Conde Nast might actually make an offer???

BTW – Tecktonik Media (which owns CoverAwards) is not for sale — YET!  I’m totally open to being wined and dined though!
