Squeal little piglets squeal.

Con. I hadn't seen that little childish quip since the ADVFN threads were polluted by trolls. What sort of an infantile mind writes such offensive drive.

I didn't have to look for the trade Contra, go figure!

Time you stopped pontificating on here on the perils of ITV and spent a bit of time tending to that financial maze that is in your empty head. One thing I have learned in life is how to spot a fraud.....you are so obvious you should shorten your handle to Con and stop boring the pants off everyone!

Contra, I see a smooth operator bought 543k about half an hour ago. Someone isn't listening or indeed reading your self-aggrandising posts. It's terrific to read the comic strips from you and global nomad Tom from Toytown.

ITV BUY......Stellar investment.

ROFLMAO..I'm impressed Contra, with 50 holdings and more gold and silver you'd cop in a Hatton Garden SDB cave, I have to wonder why you spend such an inordinate amount of your here on this ITV thread.

Dream on you silly old dreamer, but thanks for the laugh......

O Malley, do you ever read other posts. I thought you might have sold your ITV shares when I saw a sell order for a 1,000 shares at 81p on Level2.

Sadly not.....you know the conspiracy, the Dame is in league with Kier Starmer and Co to sell ITV to PRAVDA so Putin can binge watch re-runs of 'The Man from Uncle'.....

Contrarian....I and many others are doing very well from our ITV investment. But then, we know how to make money, sadly you do not, or if you do you

would cease posting the rubbish that you do post under several guises. But you are harmless, pity you don't devote a bit of time to reading, try 'Market Wizards' by Jack D Schwagger, if it is possible for you to absorb the success of real contrarian investors. It would be nice if you could learn how stupid you sound with your daily BS bulletins!!!

Be lucky.

The City isn't really back from the holiday till next week, the MM's are shuffling around looking busy while tidying the desk. It is nothing but window dressing and those watching will die of boredom before the sp moves up or down a penny. As Buffett said years ago after playing a long waiting game with stocks...do not confuse a company's share price with it's real value.....ITV is imo is way undervalued.

My favourite Buffett quote is.... "The stock market is a device for transferring money from the impatient to the patient". This quote is a cornerstone of his long-term investment philosophy, which emphasizes discipline, emotional control, and the power of compounding over time.

O Malley, the ITV share price isn't being held up by the Comcast/SKY talks, held down some are saying. Talks about a deal are just talks.

Also I failed to mention that your comments on Putin are not only distasteful but show your true colours. If you lived in Russia and wrote about Putin like

you write about the ITV CEO your demise would have occurred long ago. Let's face it O'malley you are not very bright and that and your loudmouth make you dangerous. You should not be promoting a murderous dictator, you should apologise to the BB.

O Malley, you really are lacking in basic financial understanding. Please can you tell me what 'woke' is and how it affects the ITV share price.

You grasp onto the few overused words used by Boris the Buffoon, Trump and Nigel Farage and others to tell us all to be afraid of the bogey man in a vain attempt to sound as though you are knowledgeable. If I were you I would sell any ITV shares I owned and put the funds into Bitcoin or some other worthless investment like DJT or another POS that parodies as a proper Media share. You also show your ignorance with your views on Brexit, again using your favourite word 'woke' to explain how leaving a market of half a billion people has done wonders for the UK. If you are indeed 'woke' which means 'awake' follow the news and it may become clear why the 'idiom' states safety in numbers and not ditch your EU allies and markets. Just look what is happening in the USA, a power crazy madman has been let loose by all those brain washed Americans who fell for the lies.

Do us all a favour and keep your ridiculous views for anyone who will listen to the absolute rubbish you infect this BB with. Don't forget to put that SELL order on today and get that dough into something run by the un woke frauds you parrot!

O'malley... Clueless, devoid of ideas, woke to the gunnels. take some time out to compare your judgement with the real world.

Exactly a year ago ITV closed at 69.90p. ITV closed today at 80.55p or 10.65p up from a year ago. Add to that a 5p dividend which makes the rise 15.65p

or a rise of 22.33%.......If you still regard the CEO as being devoid of ideas, clueless, and woke to the gunnels whatever 'woke' has to do with anything especially as the dunces who use the word can never explain what it means. What share do you own that has done better? how much has your house gone up? which bank or BS offers 15% with the chance of it being a whole lot more.

I imagine you are a sensible canny investor and not a foolhardy gambler, so why are you constantly bashing a CEO who in reality has done ok. ITVx record streams, Studios doing very well, a back catalogue often overlooked. My view is ITV like many UK household names is a victim of the damage caused by Brexit, Putin's illegal war and many other things we call events. It will not take a miracle for ITV to rebound, it's on the cards. Those who have stayed with it and are happy with the returns, remember ITV is a far stronger company than it was in 2022. Just be content and patient, investing in shares is a marathon not a sprint.

Doolally Omalley wrote the following, well reposted it from the Dunces at Hades/BOIX/??? pseudo sycophants on the MADVFN threads.

Only just had chance to catch up the posts and this one sums up the dame and the absolute disgraceful attitude of her and the overpaid clowns allegedly running this pile of dung perfectly. The mind boggles how anyone in their right mind could suggest she's done any good whatsoever for ITV. The silence speaks volumes.

Question to Omalley and his other alter ego's....WTF are you doing investing in ITV, surely as you hate ITV and it's CEO and anyone else your low intellect blames for the huge losses you are sitting on. Just go buy some BITCOIN or penny share you like the name of and leave ITV to the professionals.

You people are clutching at straws in the hope you can exit a bad investment. FTSE250 is absolute garbage still. Things have changed admit defeat reconcile your grief and move on.

Contrarian, are you sure you are a contrarian, 'irony' I guess. Just for the record, ITV has been a stellar investment for many of us, so I will gladly admit victory and leave the ITV bashing to those contrarians who crow loudest!

I think that Dame McCall has handled things well, her Easyjet days were a great success and both ITV and Easyjet fund managers seem to agree.with her.

Pogo...it's a bit more than about a name. Apple spent years trying to oust Apple Corps from the Beatles and ended up paying a kings ransom. ITVx has a lot of pluses, it is more about ITV as a whole entity being of interest to Apple. I see nobody here thinks it's a goer!

I reiterate, I read a post on ADVFN and thanks for the input.

I have just read a post on ADVFN...the ITV 2020 thread from the maligned Mr Goldfinger. They say there is no smoke without fire, but is it so crazy to think there may be some substance is this. Speculation was rife around 2014 that Apple would launch a physical Apple-branded TV, leading to the "iTV" moniker. That was ten years ago, in 2025 ITVx is a reasonably big player out there. An Apple takeover could be a perfect deal for two brands with an almost identical symbol. ITV as a whole could be acquired by Apple giving them Studios, M&E, plus all the extras like a great back catalogue. I haven't a clue if Apple TV are a suitor, but should all of this media Merger and Acquisitions happen as forecast, such a deal sounds a perfect fit and imo would be sanctioned by the Government.

TelAviv Tom, strange that a little article that dares to suggest 62p is fair value should receive scorn. If and it remains a big 'if' ITV or part of it is to be sold the price will be based on it's value. Wishing it will be a huge amount won't make it so. As I have a holding here, I am happy to take the divs, so any bid will have to be fair to shareholders who I am sure will want a fair price.

BigEgo....The report comes from the Simply Wall Street Website, why do you doubt it's contents. Not even a report just clickbait is your view. Are Simply Wall St so hard up they resort to BS and lies for clickbait.

Simply Wall St report, actually a good synopsis and although the fair value of 62p seems cheap, reading the report there are many pluses that would boost the sp in future. Nice to see an honest view that isn't promoting false hopes. My view is fair value would be more 75p and any offer from Comcast/SKY would be 50% more at 112p or more if another bidder was on the scene, £1.6billion is around 43p for the M&E.

The old idiom is so spot on with the now 30% Brexit supporters. IronKnut posts that he hopes I get well. My reply to Knut is simple, post the Brexit plus points so I can see why he believes that losing the 500 million EU market has made him rich. If he has had options on a down market ie PUTS, then put a feather in his cap for foreseeing the crash and burn of the UK. From reading Knut's posts I would say he hasn't a clue, but carry on living in Cloud Cuckoo Land. So to IronKnut, I say that apart from being very well, I hope he uses his time listing all the Brexit things, it should take him a while to think of at least one, pluse a minute to write it down.

Omalley, Brexit has been possibly one of the worst self inflicted disasters in Britain's history. The lack of foreign investment in the UK is just one of the major bad things that we voted for when we voted that idiot Boris Johnson in to power. Only a fool would think ITV haven't been adversely affected as foreign investors pulled their money. We voted to break a business relationship with 500 million Europeans, it's not Europe who is corrupt, it is our leaders who allowed the crazy referendum in the first place. Cameron, Johnson, Truss, the three stooges, Sunak who was repairing things as best he could was ousted in favour of Starmer and Reeves. It will take years to repair, if it ever can!

I think Pogo is close to the mark with ITV. Wait till the WBD deal is done and dusted, this Labour Govt will ok the Comcast deal. It won't end there as I am confident ITV will attract another bidder or bidders who will bid on ITV as a whole. If this happens we will see a cash bid at close to 200p which is still only £7.5 billion, short change to the behemoths across the pond or even Europe.
