Abu Dhabi's Mubadala Development Company (MDC) is gearing up to launch a daily English-language newspaper that will be part of an ambitious new media empire, ArabianBusiness.com has revealed. The government-owned investment company is currently head-hunting for senior editorial staff to work on a broadsheet-style general news title. A tentative launch date of Nov. 2007 has been set. MDC is also thought to have plans for a dedicated business newspaper, although it would probably launch this after the general news title. http://www.arabianbusiness.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=11524; April 24, 2007
