AllThingsD Up for Sale
A KAFKAESQUE DEVELOPMENT: AllThingsD, the influential tech news site founded by Kara Swisher and Walt Mossberg, including respected contributors like Peter Kafka, are in talks with News Corp about their partnership, according to Reuters. The site’s contract with Rupert Murdoch’s company expires this year, just as News Corp is spinning off its publishing holdings. The discussions take place amid rumored interest by companies like Conde Nast, Hearst and Guggenheim Digital Media, which owns The Hollywood Reporter, Billboard and AdWeek and recently indicated its interest in “acquiring and investing in new media companies and properties that will meaningfully expand its current portfolio.” (2/15p)
