Sony Corporation (TSE:6758) is listening to bank pitches about a potential sale of its film and TV operations, several sources told The Post. “Every bank is pushing pitches,” said one person familiar with the process. Another confirmed that banks have paid a flurry of visits to Tokyo to advise on a sale of Sony's film and TV business.

CBS Corporation Chief Executive Officer Leslie Moonves has long signaled interest in acquiring the asset, though several Chinese bidders could be in the wings. Sony Chief Executive Officer Kaz Hirai isn't interested in selling Sony Music, sources said. Sony reps in Japan couldn't immediately be reached for comment.
