- Wednesday, August 31, 2011, 5:38 PM Business Insider claims six companies have made informal bids for Hulu, with most coming at the upper end of a range of $500M-$2B. GOOG, AMZN, and YHOO are considered among the most interested parties, while AAPL and MSFT declined to make bids. One source claims Yahoo's offer could be torpedoed by its board. (previously) Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Friday, July 22, 2011, 5:32 AM Aussie regulators are expected to block a $2B takeover bid by Australian pay-TV firm Foxtel for rival Austar on competition grounds. In a preliminary ruling, regulators said their decision about Foxtel, which is 25% owned by News Corp. (NWS), had nothing to do with NWS' ongoing scandal. Comment! [Global & FX, M&A]
- Friday, July 22, 2011, 5:26 AM Apple (AAPL) is said to be in talks for Hulu (NWS, DIS, CMCSA), but discussions are still in early stages and there are plenty of other firms eager to buy the online video company. Another factor that makes an Apple bid unlikely: The company has shied away from making large acquisitions, and Hulu's price tag could top $2B. 1 Comment [Tech, M&A]
- Wednesday, July 13, 2011, 9:38 AM More on dropping of Sky (BSYBY.PK) bid: News Corp. (NWS -0.5%) feels the situation has become "too politicized" for it to continue with its offer, a source says, although NWS intends to remain a long-term shareholder. Sky shares are -4% in London. Comment! [Top Stories, Breaking News, M&A]
- Wednesday, July 13, 2011, 9:29 AM News Corp. (NWS) withdraws its bid to buy BSkyB (BSYBY.PK). Comment! [M&A, Top Stories, Breaking News]
- Monday, July 11, 2011, 11:15 AM News Corp's (NWS) "withdrawal of undertakings" at the Competition Commission lays a path for the U.K. to conduct a full competitive inquiry of the BSkyB takeover proposal, which could slow the process considerably. NWS -6%, BSYBY.PK -8%. (PR; previous developments) 1 Comment [M&A, Top Stories, On the Move]
- Monday, July 11, 2011, 10:55 AM News Corp. (NWS) "withdraws proposed undertakings" on its British Sky Broadcasting bid, and BSkyB (BSYBY.PK -7.5%) is down as much as 11% in London. Doesn't look like a dead bid, yet. Comment! [Breaking News, M&A, Top Stories, On the Move]
- Monday, July 11, 2011, 7:47 AM News Corp.'s (NWS -0.1%) hopes of buying BSkyB (BSYBY.PK) are fading after the U.K. government says it will seek fresh regulatory advice about the acquisition following the phone-hacking scandal at the News of the World. In London, BSkyB -6.2% Comment! [M&A, On the Move]
- Sunday, July 10, 2011, 6:22 AM Thank you & Goodbye - News of the World publishes its last edition, but this still may not stop attempts to delay a decision about approving News Corp.'s (NWS) purchase of British Sky (BSYBY.PK) until after the phone-hacking probes are over - i.e., for years. If the deal fails, some want NWS to return the $12B to shareholders. Comment! [M&A]
- Friday, July 8, 2011, 7:32 AM David Cameron says a decision whether to allow News Corp. (NWS) to take over BSkyB (BSYBY.PK) will take 'some time' because of the number of responses to a public consultation. This follows the uproar of the phone-hacking scandal. BSkyB is -3.5% in London. Comment! [M&A]
- Thursday, July 7, 2011, 4:57 PM Mad men and zombies may entice News Corp. (NWS), Disney (DIS) or Time Warner (TWX) to chase "the most expensive American media takeover in five years": AMC Networks (AMCX +1.9%). It's a "hot network," Gamco Investors says, and plenty of media companies would like the "predictable, recurring dual-revenue streams of advertising and subscription fees.” Comment! [M&A]
- Thursday, June 30, 2011, 10:17 AM A tale of two web sites: Possessing roughly 4x as much U.S. traffic as Facebook five years ago, MySpace has been left in the dust by Facebook, leading to News Corp.'s (NWS) recent decision to sell the business for a fraction of its purchase price. 4 Comments [Tech, M&A]
- Thursday, June 30, 2011, 7:47 AM The U.K. clears News Corp.'s (NWS) purchase of BSkyB (BSYBY.PK), removing the threat of a prolonged antitrust investigation. News Corp.'s next hurdle is to re-negotiate a deal price with BSkyB; a year ago, NWS offered £7/share but BSkyB is now trading around £8.50. Comment! [M&A]
- Wednesday, June 22, 2011, 7:00 AM Yahoo (YHOO) may or may not be interested in buying Hulu (NWS, DIS, CMCSA). Either way, sources say the video site is thinking about putting itself up for sale after getting an unsolicited takeover offer of undisclosed size. Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Monday, June 6, 2011, 2:23 PM News Corp. (NWS -0.8%) is moving toward a deal for Myspace, with a strategic partnership appearing more likely than a straight sale, WSJ reports. The lack of a bidder willing to come in and sweep away Myspace at a high price has increased the odds that News Corp. will keep a stake. 3 Comments [M&A]
- Thursday, May 26, 2011, 6:01 PM Communications equipment maker Arris (ARRS) is in talks to buy SeaChange International (SEAC), a maker of digital video gear, WSJ reports. TiVo (TIVO) and NDS Group, a technology provider for pay-TV operators owned by News Corp. (NWS) and buyout firm Permira, also reportedly considered buying SEAC but have lost interest. 1 Comment [M&A]
