Microsoft is seeking partners including Time Warner and News Corp. in a new bid to acquire Yahoo's search business, the Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday. Microsoft wants to acquire Yahoo search, with the partner, likely a media company, taking the rest of Yahoo's business.
This is a prediction that Microsoft will partner with Time Warner or News Corp. in an attempt to acquire yahoo. The bid need not be successful. The prediction expires on 30 September (or earlier if a certain Mr. Icahn has his way!)
