Microsoft’s Dance With Newspapers Continues
In: web resources
26 Nov 2009
We’ve been doing some more digging on the definitive moves by Microsoft to woo newspapers over to Bing and away from Google, a story we broke two weeks ago.
Since then there have been some follow-up by various media outlets, notably the Financial Times this week which confirmed that Microsoft had had discussions with News Corp to “de-index” its news websites from Google.
Who approached who first? The FT said the impetus came from News Corp, although our information is that Microsoft is also talking to a range of newspaper publishers in Europe as well, such as German publishers like Axel Springer.
So here is what our sources are coming up with.

I have started from London, taken the Channel tunnel from Dover, gone over to France and then to Paris, from Paris taken the motorway to Spain and then to Portugal from Portugal and then Spain along the French Riviera to Monaco and on to Italy – motorway to Rome – up the cost to Milan and across to Venice then to Switzerland and then Austria, then to Germany, Holland and then through Belgium to Channel tunnel and back to London. You could take up to three months – you could also visit various East European Countries if you wanted and also Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia. Happy traveling.
