More on Time-Warner
Posted by Lisa Fairfax

Yesterday, Carl Icahn and Bruce Wasserstein of Lazard delivered a 342-page report arguing, in part, for the break-up of Time-Warner into four separate companies. Interestingly, unlike other proxy contests, Icahn reportedly stated that if his proxy battle for Time-Warner proved unsuccessful, he would not continue to press for changes at the company. I wonder if that statement represents a sign of a respectful retreat or an attempt to raise the stakes by warning shareholders that his bid may represent a one-time opportunity for them.
