The two spoke last week, the New York Post reports, citing unnamed sources. A spokesperson for Shari Redstone declined to comment on the reported meeting. The discussions come as Sumner Redstone is fighting a court battle for the control of Viacom with his onetime heir apparent, company chairman Philippe Dauman. While Redstone has being trying to thwart Dauman's sale of a stake in the 104-year-old movie studio, Dauman last week said he was still moving forward with plans to sell a large piece of it. At a brokerage conference, Dauman said that Viacom (VIAB) was having "detailed discussions" with several potential buyers about selling a stake of some 49% in Paramount. The fight between Dauman and Redstone is part of a dramatic power struggle over Sumner Redstone's mental competence. The 93-year-old mogul is the lead shareholder in National Amusements, the holding company that controls about 80% of the voting shares in both Viacom and CBS (CBS).
