Media Mogul In Spotlight

Element9

The largest investor-shareholder in Citadel Broadcasting is in the center of an international spy story, mentioned in this story in the London Evening Standard, regarding the NSA spying on Princess Diana.

"American intelligence agencies were bugging Princess Diana's telephone over her relationship with a US billionaire, the Evening Standard has learned.

She was even forced to abandon a planned holiday with her sons in the US with tycoon Teddy Forstmann on advice from secret services, who passed on their concerns to their British counterparts.

Both US and British intelligence then forced Diana to change her plans to stay with Mr Forstmann in the summer of 1997, saying it was too "dangerous" to take her sons there."

Billionaire (x followed by nine zeros)Theodore Forstmann is a brilliant financier who owns a controlling interest (67%) in Citadel Broadcasting and many other companies.

Forstmann closely guards his privacy, preferring to pull the levers of power from behind the curtain. Interesting and intruiging to find that his conversations with the Princess were tapped by the NSA and that he's being mentioned as an integral part of a breaking and disputed news story.
