CNN is famous for having a good stock of psyops and planted stories. My favorite planted story on CNN was during the Kosovo conflict. A certain general who now has a policy wonk job at UCLA's Ronald Burkle Institute excused his bombing of a news station, including killing at least one teen who worked there, by noting recently to Amy Goodman on "Democracy Now" that the good general had planted a story on CNN. Therefore, the folks at the studio in Kosovo should have known to beat it so they wouldn't die by being bombed. In short, looks like this is more than just a boon in certain economic sectors. Looks like this is a marriage of intelligence gathering and propaganda production sectors for Uncle Sam as well. Google was a CIA start up and has lots of ex-NSA types on board.

This is a big deal, even if we dont' have figures for it, which is why I chucked in the site stats for CNN (I figured some folks would wonder why this was a story). As for only running stuff from the "wires" we wouldn't 1% of the stuff we could run, Google landing a massive exclusive deal on a property such as CNN is newsworthy.

CNN is becoming the first place to find breaking news video (particularly if you're trapped in an office and can't get to a TV). And with CNN's growing list of downloadable audio and video podcasts, this could be just the beginning of a media partnership juggernaut.

Are these new ad placements or is some other partner being replaced? 2. If a partner is replaced, who and why? How does it affect the company being replaced? 3. Is this a text ad deal only or will it include display ads too? What about video ad insertions? 4. Will Google's inventory to sell be remnant, pre-emptable inventory or premium, right of first refusal inventory? 5. Are there discussions for Google to fill remnant TV space with video ads? 6. etc. etc. etc. The source of a press release is inconsequential - it's the questions asked afterwards that make the story compelling to read.

Not what I would call a ' scoop.' Is there anyone here that really cares about more Google Ads? I wonder if people are interested in sites without ad links, animations, and videos. I fully understand sites need revenues and advertisingto sustain themselves, but the advertising is taking users into the ' overkill ' zone. I am betting users are going to grow tired of being hammered all the time with ads and the meltdown will be pretty quick. You can only hand people a pile of poop and make them believe it's ice cream for so long. It’s getting to the point that TC runs news stories from the wire of from other sites.
