The Daily Mail is reported to be in preliminary talks with private equity firms to launch a bid for Yahoo, expressing interest in the company's news and media properties. The bid, which would see the complete acquisition of Yahoo by a private equity firm, could result in the formation of a new company combining Yahoo's news and media properties with Dailymail.com and Elite Daily. If successful, the Yahoo takeover could significantly increase the presence of the Daily Mail in the US, which had 66.7 million unique US visitors in Monday.
