Time Warner Inc. (which currently owns 84% of Time Warner Cable) is not looking to sell Time Warner Cable per se (as in sell it to Comcast or another entity). Speculation is that Time Warner Inc. wants to improve its capital structure in a tax efficient way and simply restructure the two business units and make them more independent of each other. Time Warner Cable has lost a substantial amount of market value since it first started trading and in my opinion management believes the company will do better on its own. Of course Time Warner Inc. won't let them just "be free" and will be compensated for the separation one way or another - speculation is that it will be through a dividend.
