Playboy, 007's old ally, may be subject of takeover fight [HMSS Weblog]

An interesting story appeared earlier in the week on The HMSS Weblog regarding Playboy Enterprises Inc. The article notes:

“Playboy magazine and its parent company, Playboy Enterprises Inc., may be the target of a takeover fight. Why should James Bond fans care? Well, the magazine does have a half-century relationship with a certain gentleman agent.”

The article covers the background to the takeover as well as providing a link to the last interview with Ian Fleming, which was published in Playboy.
