I suspect "declined to comment" means they are in a critical phase of the negotiations and are unable to make any firm statements at this time. Remember AOL & NBC are supposed to be suitors also, so we could possibly be in the middle of a bidding war for this gem. Regardless, the market likes what it sees: BCST Up 29 and change on 4x normal volume. Not a bad day.

That doesn't mean much. The key is people realize now BCST is a very attractive takeover candidate. That will be factored into the price. Even if YHOO doesn't annouce any deal soon, BCST is likely to keep the premium it gained today.
