News Corp. Sells Its 19% Stake In Macrovision
N/A

Macrovision Solutions (MVSN) announced that News Corp. (NWS) has sold its 19% stake in the company to a group of new and existing institutional investors. The News Corp. position resulted from its 41% stake in Gemstar-TV Guide, which recently merged with Macrovision. The WSJ late last year noted that News Corp.’s investment, which dates back to the $3 billion purchase of one-time TV Guide parent Triangle Publications in 1998, resulted in billions in losses for the company. (Thanks to Paidcontent for digging up the WSJ story.)
