This from Tom Prince:

"When David Pecker and AMI bought Weider Publishing, they also purchased the IFBB and the Mr. Olympia. Apparently, Ben Weider doesn't see it that way, or is having a hard time dealing with reality.
David Pecker and Wayne Demilia, along with Jim Lorimer and Arnold, are starting a new bodybuilding federation to get out from under the Weider's.
These talks are very recent, and obviously, are in the early stages of discussion and planning. But, I think it's interesting, and could be very good for bodybuilding. Ben Weider is so old and out of touch, that he has no clue as to what's going on in the IFBB".
