Microsoft, Yahoo Get Approval from U.S., EU

Microsoft and Yahoo said that their online search deal has received approval from U.S. and European Union regulators, paving the way for the two companies to combine much of their Internet search business. Under the 10-year deal, which was announced in July, Yahoo.com and Bing.com will maintain their own branding but search results on Yahoo.com will say "powered by Bing."
