Microsoft could team up with Time Warner and Rupert Murdoch's News Corp in a new bid to acquire Yahoo's search business, according to the Wall Street Journal.
The newspaper claims today that Microsoft wants to acquire Yahoo search, with the partner, likely a media company, taking the rest of Yahoo's business. CEO Steve Ballmer called Yahoo chairman Roy Bostock and arranged a meeting set for Monday, but that meeting was cancelled, the Journal reported, citing people familiar with the situation.
