News Corp is in negotiations to buy the TV and video search company Blinkx, and not Technorati.
The purchase would provide a range of synergies with existing News Corp properties, including Fox Television and 20th Century Fox movie studios in the United States.
The LA Times reports that some News Corp. sources saying that the talks to buy Blinkx weren’t quite as advanced as Murdoch suggested last week and could still break down.
