This article is for subscribers only.
Rupert Murdoch, seeking to pull off his biggest deal ever, has brought some of the old team together again -- and made some substitutions.
Centerview Partners LLC’s co-founder Blair W. Effron, 52, is among the advisers working on Murdoch’s bid for Time Warner Inc. who also helped on his 2007 purchase of Wall Street Journal owner Dow Jones & Co. So is JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s James B. “Jimmy” Lee, 61. Skadden Arps Slate Meagher & Flom LLP is providing legal advice, just as in that deal.
