NEW YORK Levi Strauss has tentatively selected Zenith Media to handle media chores, subject to finalizing terms for a new contract, according to sources. The parties have been negotiating for more than a week and cautioned that talks are ongoing, sources said.

The pending selection was made after a review that the client commenced in August. The client spent $70 million on ads in 2007, according to Nielsen Monitor-Plus.

Interpublic Group’s Initiative is the buying incumbent. Planning has been split between IPG’s Draftfcb (Dockers) and Publicis Groupe-backed Bartle Bogle Hegarty (Levi’s).
