Verizon will keep a stake in the business, they said.\nNo final decision has been made and discussions could fall through. The assets could fetch as much as $5 billion, Bloomberg News hasreported.\nVerizon and Apollo declined to comment.\nWith the potential sale, Verizon would unload the remnants of an ambitious but distracting foray into online advertising. Last year, the telecom giant agreed tosellthe HuffPost online news service to BuzzFeed Inc., and in 2019 it sold the blogging platform Tumblr.\nThe phone company’s priority today is its wireless business and the construction of a multibillion-dollar network for advanced 5G services.\nVerizon’s investments in online advertising never really paid off. The company acquired AOL for $4.4 billion in 2015. Tim Armstrong, head of AOL, said at the time he wanted to build a “house of brands” at Verizon under a division dubbed Oath. In 2017, the company bought Yahoo!’s internet properties for about $4.5 billion, betting its 1 billion-plus users would be a fertile audience for online ads.\nBut in 2018, after Hans Vestberg took over as Verizon’s chief executive officer, the company wrote off more than $4 billion of its media holdings, or roughly half the value of those business, and renamed the division Verizon Media Group.\nVerizon Media has more than a dozen online brands. The portfolio includes TechCrunch, Ryot, Built By Girls and Flurry, according to its website. The division had first-quarter revenue of $1.9 billion, up 12% from a year earlier, according to a filing.","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":108372441,"gmtCreate":1620002773283,"gmtModify":1704337137306,"author":{"id":"3580934715001445","authorId":"3580934715001445","name":"Yamazaki月","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/df3f02787a2de173998904937087029e","vip":1,"crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3580934715001445","authorIdStr":"3580934715001445"},"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/108372441","repostId":1147761301,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":4212597,"gmtCreate":1620081698194,"gmtModify":1680786833459,"authorId":3582063342503280,"author":{"id":3582063342503280,"idStr":"3582063342503280","authorId":3582063342503280,"name":"banchin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c4c72eded6f6ba8a8c66bbf3cd0e90c","vip":1,"currentWearingBadge":{"badgeId":"23f878ed27704312ae41c7f17e73b319-2","templateUuid":"23f878ed27704312ae41c7f17e73b319","name":"Annualised
