  • New York Times CEO Janet Robinson and others still collected big pay checks even with no profits at the company. Corporate greed at its best. [NYP]
  • AOL withdraws bid for Swedish online ad firm Tradedoubler causing a drop on that company's stock price. Wonder what AOL CEO Randy Falco has his eyes on now? [Reuters]
  • If you're a parent and a group of people have to talk you out of taking your kids to "R" rated movies, chances are you suck as a parent [Reuters]
  • ESPN has hired former New York Times sports editor Le Anne Schreiber as its ombudsman. OK so what the hell is a ombudsman? Oh wait that's like a mediator/investigator type right? [Reuters]
  • Viacom has the support of it's bigger media rival Time Warner with its jihad against Youtube [Bloomberg]
  • Steve Case fresh off the launch of his health website, is now planning to launch an online payment system called GratisCard. [Businessweek].
