Daily Mail and General Trust plc is a British media conglomerate, and one of the largest in Europe. In the UK, it has interests in national and regional newspapers, television and radio. DMGT doesn’t own any regional newspapers as it sold Northcliffe Newspapers in 2013. http://www.pressgazette.co.uk/dmgt-sells-northcliffe-regional-press-empire-local-world-£525m-and-retains-minority-stake http://www.theguardian.com/media/2012/nov/21/trinity-mirror-buy-20-percent-local-world DMGT doesn’t own any television businesses, it has a minority stake in ITN. DMGT has sold its radio business in Australia and does not have any radio businesses in the UK
Not done The article doesn't say that you do own any television businesses; it says that you have interests (such as partial ownership), which you seem to be confirming is the case. CorporateM (Talk) 19:27, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
The company has extensive activities based outside the UK, through DMG World Media and DMG Information. dmg world media is now called dmg events

It is listed on the London Stock Exchange.[4] Jonathan Harmsworth, 4th Viscount Rothermere is the chairman and controlling shareholder of the company.[5] The head office is located in the Northcliffe House in Kensington, London Borough of Kensington and Chelsea.
History[edit]The group can trace its origins back to launch of the mid market national newspaper the Daily Mail by Harold Harmsworth, 1st Viscount Rothermere and his elder brother, Alfred Harmsworth, 1st Viscount Northcliffe, in 1896.[6] It was incorporated in 1922 and its shares were first listed on the London Stock Exchange in 1932. Harmsworth, who had been elevated to the peerage as Lord Rothermere, was editorially sympathetic to Oswald Mosley[6] and the British Union of Fascists and he wrote an article, "Hurrah for the Blackshirts", in January 1934.[7] Referring to Adolf Hitler's proposed invasion of Czechoslovakia, Rothermere, again writing in the Daily Mail, said in 1938 that "Czechs were of no concern to Englishmen".[8]
After almost 100 years in Fleet Street, the company left its original premises of New Carmelite House in Fleet Street in 1988 to move to Northcliffe House in Kensington. At the same time as the newspapers moved to Kensington, the printing operation for Southern England moved four miles (6 km) away to Surrey Quays. This state-of-the-art printing centre was opened on an 11-acre (45,000 m2) site at Rotherhithe in the London Docklands in 1989.[9] DMGT has sold this site and now has 2 presses in Didcot and Thurrock. http://www.cityam.com/article/dmgt-sells-its-print-works-site-british-land
