REDMOND, Wash. — NBC News has acquired full control of msnbc.com and its digital network from Microsoft Corp. and is immediately rebranding the site as NBCNews.com.
Many details of the arrangement remain to be worked out, and financial terms weren't disclosed.
But NBC News President Steve Capus said the site — one of the news industry's earliest and most successful online operations — would become part of NBC News Digital, a new division led by Vivian Schiller, the former president and chief executive of National Public Radio. Schiller joined NBC News as chief digital officer last year.

NBC News has acquired full control of msnbc.com and its digital network from Microsoft Corp. and is immediately rebranding the site as NBCNews.com. "Acquired" my ass. Microsoft ditched PMSNBC last week over their increasingly radical politics.

How do you spin failure ....”one of the news industry’s earliest and most successful online operations — would become part of NBC News Digital, a new division led by Vivian Schiller, the former president and chief executive of National Public Radio. Schiller joined NBC News as chief digital officer last year.” Oh yes, Schiller is the one in charge when Congress tried to pull funding from NPR for misconduct.... it’s only natural she would appear at NBC.

She is also the one who fired Juan Williams for daring to state aloud that he felt uncomfortable on an airplane with muslims, and said if he felt that way he needs a shrink.

NBC News Digital, a new division led by Vivian Schiller, the former president and chief executive of National Public Radio. Yeah, rearrange the deck chairs again, that'll work.

Juan Williams should get wound up over this. I expect “inside information” will be spilling out.

There's got to be a some sort of law regarding fraud and deceit in naming it NBC"News".com.
How much "real" news is there really, in any given broadcast?
One minute of non-NBC advertising probably has more truthful statements than an entire program day of NBC "news".
