Activision/Blizzard has confirmed that - as we said in December - Infinity Ward will be taking the development task for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
President and CEO of Activision Publishing, Mike Griffith, made the definitive statement, "We will also release Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 from Infinity Ward" during Activision/Blizzard's recent earnings call.
As expected, this was not the only announcement of an old IP being pushed further in order to provide security for the company in what looks like a financially grim 2009 for all.
Griffin also said, "Starting with the Guitar Hero franchise, we will launch a major restage of the business with all new differentiated Guitar Hero products, plus the launch of DJ Hero, a line extension that enhances and extends the franchise. We will be sharing more details with you about our new Guitar Hero lineup and DJ Hero games in the future."

The news isn't that there will be a COD:MW2, it's that Infinity Ward is developing it. If you checked the linked to story, you'd read the following;

We would have to assume that Infinity Ward is developing this title, enabling Treyarch to continue with the World War II-based COD games, although this has not been confirmed.
My bolding. Now it has been confirmed.

Strange since it was Infinity Ward themselves who confirmed COD:MW 2.
