Move, Inc. Responds to Zillow CEO's Comment on CNBC

SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 12, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Move, Inc. today provided the following statement regarding Zillow CEO Spencer Rascoff's comment on CNBC:

"Today on CNBC, Zillow CEO Spencer Rascoff accused Rupert Murdoch and News Corp of acting out of 'desperation' in filing a 'vindictive' lawsuit. But that litigation was filed by Move long before News Corp even owned the company, and it is based squarely on the merits of the case, not emotions. In Zillow's own filings with the SEC, it has concluded there is a 'reasonable possibility' it will suffer a loss in this lawsuit. 

It's understandable why Mr. Rascoff said today of the litigation, he's 'tried to put it out of my mind.' Just last week, the judge ordered defendants to appear for a two-day evidentiary hearing on April 13 and 14 into Move's claims that important evidence has been destroyed by some or all of the defendants in this case."
