Implications?

12:11 pm I heard it first, News, Technology and Trends

Microsoft is buying Yahoo , or are they? If you google search “Microsoft buys yahoo” you’ll get a whole lot of blog posts about the issue. (Go do it, read some and come back here. Yes, now.) Yahoo is reviewing the bid, and the Justice Department is also interested at looking into it.

Many of you in Com 300 were asking questions about regulation in the media. One regulation issue is who owns who. What are the implications for ownership, how does that affect what is/isn’t presented, and what is best for the society? Anyone have any thoughts?

Cross posted on my own blog, here. (Yes, I have a blog, do you?)
