Verizon Communications Inc. (VZ) said it would end the Oath brand name and rename the business that includes Yahoo, AOL and TechCrunch as Verizon Media Group on Jan. 8.

Verizon Media Group said the new brand reflects "our strong alignment as a core pillar of Verizon's business."

Yahoo's core internet assets were sold to Verizon in 2017 for about $4.5 billion.
