MAJOR PAPERS:

General Motors Corporation (NYSE: GM) is expected to announce as soon as today that it is selling its medium-duty truck unit to Navistar International Corporation (OTC: NAVZ), reported the Wall Street Journal.
Its balance sheet is clean and straight forward, debt is less than 25% of capital, it produces over $70M a year in operating cash, pays a 3.5% dividend and buys back its stock, but, asks the Wall Street Journal's "Smartmoney Stock Screen" about Journal Communications Inc (NYSE: JRN), is this stock a bargain or perhaps a takeover candidate?

OTHER PAPERS:

According to two people familiar with the matter, the FTC is expected to approve the proposed $3.1B acquisition of DoubleClick by Google Inc (NASDAQ: GOOG), the Washington Post reported.

WEBSITES:

According to an inside source, Earthlink Inc (NASDAQ: ELNK) executives, including an executive VP and a VP, have left the company over the last week, DSLreports.com noted. The company is also cutting VOIP and Muni-Wifi services, in addition to the previously announced job cuts.
