Time Warner in Phone Talks: New York-based Time Warner Inc. is talking with several telephone companies, including U S West Inc. of Denver, in the media-entertainment firm’s continuing effort to find partners for expansion, a published report said. Neither Time Warner nor U S West would comment on the report in the Wall Street Journal, calling the story speculation. Denver-based U S West is the “Baby Bell” phone company for the Midwest and Rocky Mountain states. It is interested in a partnership with one or more cable companies, spokeswoman Lois Leach said.
