Jeremy Philips, the thirtysomething wunderkind of News Corp., is the reported "driving force" behind talks to acquire business networking site LinkedIn. Word is Philips wants to integrate the social network with News Corp.'s other new toy, the Wall Street Journal, in attempt to rejuvenate the paper's sagging classifieds revenues. Like the sound of that? Well good luck trying to contact Philips for some biz dev. The piker has all of 79 connections on LinkedIn. Newbie!
