The soon-to-be former owner, Meredith said the Benioffs “will not be involved in the day-to-day operations or journalistic decisions”.
The ownership deal could close within a month but must first get regulatory approval.
Mr Benioff – who is chairman, co-chief executive and co-founder of the cloud computing firm Salesforce.com – said that
“The power of Time has always been in its unique storytelling of the people and issues that affect us all, and connect us all,” he tweeted.
