BoomTown is suffering from Rupert Murdoch déjà vu. Back in July, I actually wrote a post about the head of News Corp. (owner of Dow Jones and this site) in which the first sentence was: “MySpace and Yahoo should merge.” I was referencing a very interesting comment that Murdoch made in an interview in June of 2007 with Time’s Eric Pooley. In it, he floated the idea of trading a 25 percent stake of Yahoo for MySpace.
