OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Six Flags Inc. is putting itself up for sale at auction, one week after Washington Redskins owner Dan Snyder bid to raise his stake in the amusement-park operator and oust Kieran Burke as chairman and CEO. Its shares rose 11 percent.
Six Flags, the world's second biggest theme-park operator after The Walt Disney Co., said Thursday it would invite dissident shareholder Red Zone LLC -- an investment firm controlled by Snyder -- to participate in the auction.
