maniaTV Founder Exploring Veoh Acquisition

maniaTV founder Drew Massey, who helped bring the online video company back from the dead last year, is looking to do the same with Veoh, the San Diego, Calif.–based Web firm that filed for bankruptcy a few weeks ago.

Massey has retained the services of Messier Partners to explore acquiring the assets of Veoh, a Web video pioneer, which has cycled through various business models over the past several years.
