Cohen eyes Hollywood

February 01, 2012   Lawrence Delevingne

SAC Capital Advisors founder Steven Cohen considered buying a stake in the New York Mets last year, but his plan didn’t pan out. Now he’s one of the potential buyers of the Los Angeles Dodgers, who will likely be sold by the end of April following severe financial problems. Cohen faces plenty of competition in his bid. According to media reports, interested parties include groups led by former basketball star Earvin “Magic” Johnson, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, the Disney family, former New York Yankees manager Joe Torre, News Corp., and even retired octogenarian talk show host Larry King.
