NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. cable channel The Weather Channel is to be put up for sale and could fetch more than $5 billion, The New York Times said in an online report on Thursday, quoting people briefed on the auction.
Media companies such as NBC, a unit of General Electric Co. (GE.N: Quote, Profile, Research), News Corp. (NWSa.N: Quote, Profile, Research), and Comcast Corp (CMCSA.O: Quote, Profile, Research) are interested in The Weather Channel and its popular Web site, weather.com, the report said.
A representative for the company, a privately owned cable channel, was not immediately available for comment.
The report quoted sources as saying the sale was part of a break-up of the Weather Channel's parent, Landmark Communications, a privately held company based in Norfolk, Virginia, that owns community newspapers and other media assets.
JPMorgan Chase is advising Landmark on the sale of The Weather Channel, while Lehman Brothers is advisor on the sale of its other media assets, it said.
If I was rich, you'd be in competition with me for the same honor.

I thought they sold out a long time ago.
I’ve got a spare $50. Do you suppose Kristina Abernathy would come over and give me a massage?
Why am I getting this feeling that Gore is emailing all his fellow rich environmental con artists with a “brainstorm” idea?, lol
No, but Al Gore's available.
I second that!
[[[[Shudder!]]]]
Gore and the guys from Google are pretty tight- this would fit Google’s goal to “organize the world’s information” and Algor’s goal to report “appropriate” weather stories.
Google has the cash, Algor is a major stockholder in Google, the UN would benefit...
Add me to the mix of getting rid of the “funny looking” Heidi. Also, I would bring back, Sarah Libby. There was something about her, that would start an exothermic reaction.
Nothing against pregnancy - but why are the Weather Channel gals pregnant 98% of the time?
With all the money Al Gore is scamming from his phony global warming panic he should buy the weather channel. Imagine 24/7 showings of his movie, his boring speeches and animated cartoons of drowning polar bears being clubbed and harpooned by global warming deniers.
There ya go, lol. Once they buy it, look for a name change too, something “hip” and politically correct,,such as “The Climate Channel”,,or even better,,keeping in line with Gore’s other tv show, “Current”,,how bout just “Climate”, haha. No matter what, if he does that, it’s just a matter of utter “Gorebage”, lol.
Too much glow-bull warming loony-toons will get your audience way down, then kaput. I noticed today they were doing their best to not tell people it was cold outside ... Doesn’t work, as soon as you go outside in your short sleeves, you realize the mistake. It was 30 at the pond today, even the birds were grounded. Bitter cold, 20 mph winds, wind chill in the 20s.
Agree with firing that woman, she is one dumb ...
Don’t piss off the sun ... If we don’t get the Goracle to go up and flip the switch back on, we are in for some serious cold.
This is disturbing news. Heidi will be harder to track on NPR than if she returned to the caves of Tora Bora.
I haven’t watched “The Southeast Weather Channel” for quite awhile. I got really tired of waiting until someone covered the western half of the nation. Though I recognize that more people live in the east than in the west, we are subject to a lot of weather extremes, along with large stretches of hazardous driving. Altogether too often a weather commentator would go into rapt details of Georgia or Florida, moving slowing north, then west until about Kansas and then run out of time in the segment to cover the Intermountain and Pacific West. Next segment it would start up again covering Florida and Georgia.
RUSH should buy it!!
