Most people at Reed (the publishers) are true media dinosaurs (you wouldn't believe the amount of people that have been there 10/15/20 years….. That is good for some companies but with Reed these people are still running the media business like the 80's and 90's so that is why they have fallen so fast.

Other than people being their way to long this is all my opinion.

this is my opinion. the properties are so disparate, with their own sets of issues, that piecemeal looks more likely. or that the acquirer buys everything and then disposes off properties…

Why do you say it will "likely will be piecemeal in this environment"? Is there a deeper explanation or reason for this statement or just the author's opinion?
