Qwest Makes $6 Billion MCI Bid
Thursday February 3, 8:56 am ET

PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) - Qwest Communications International Inc. (NYSE:Q - News) offered to acquire long-distance telephone and data services company MCI Inc. (NasdaqNM:MCIP - News) for more than $6 billion, sources familiar with the situation said on Thursday.
The two companies are in merger talks, but a deal is not certain since other potential bidders may approach MCI and escalate the price above what Qwest is willing to pay, one source said.

MCI declined to comment.
