MySpace.com owners News Corp. have stated they are not currently in talks with anyone about deals or acquisitions.
Their announcement follows several weeks of speculation about a failed Microsoft/Yahoo merger that has also included the likes of AOL/Time Warner.
“There are no ongoing discussions,” Peter Chernin, News Corp. chief operating officer said. “I have not had a conversation with Yahoo or AOL for a couple of weeks.”
Rupert Murdoch, News Corp.’s CEO and chairman, chimed in: “Nor have I.”
For now the fourth big giant in online media seems to be content to stay out of talks and the back and forth offers that have been filling newspaper headlines.
