Mattel to Sell Off CyberPatrol

Spud Zeppelin writes "According to this article at The Motley Fool, Mattel is looking to sell its Learning Company software division for a substantial loss compared to what the company paid to acquire it. Among Learning Company's products is the recently controversial censorware product CyberPatrol." According to the Fool, the business "racked up big losses, driving the stock near its 52-week low and contributing to the resignation of Jill Barad, the company's former chairwoman and chief executive." This software seems not very profitable in the consumer market.
