Forget about it being a rumor anymore...Vivendi is trying to sell their 61% stake ($8.7 million) in Acti-Blizz.
GameTrailers (http://www.gametrailers.com/side-mission/19726/vivendi-to-sell-majority-stake-in-activision-blizzard) and CVG (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/356111/vivendi-to-sell-majority-stake-in-activision-blizzard-report/) both have the news on this.
