Soviet style news writing

After months of hunting for a buyer, The New York Times Company said on Wednesday that it had decided not to sell The Boston Globe

No serious bids were made, thats my interpretation. Gotta read the Soviet papers between the lines.

"...that the company no longer believed it had to sell if the offers were not attractive enough."

Translation: "We can't afford to pay someone to take it off our hands."

"...analysts say, The Globe probably does not operate in the black.."

Translation: "We're losing money with only one hand instead of both."
