Just a part of the speculation in Hits! today...

DON OF A NEW ERA? Many industry veterans assert that if Warner Music Group were being run by a record executive with a clue, Ienner would already have been contacted about joining the company (as Doug Morris did the very day L.A. Reid got the ax at BMG), perhaps even taking over the North American operation now headed by Lyor Cohen. They further speculate that Ienner would be a great hire for EMI once the acquisition of WMG goes down, pointing out that Levy and Munns know from first-hand experience what a strong competitor Ienner can be, while EMI consultant Roger Ames has always been a big fan.
