Google and AOL

¶ December 16, 2005 by Rob Friesel

Time Warner Plans to Sell 5% of AOL to Google:

Finally […] Richard D. Parsons […] told Eric E. Schmidt […] that he would accept Google’s recently sweetened offer. Google, which prides itself on the purity of its search results, agreed to give favored placement to content from AOL throughout its site, something it has never done before. […] …Mr. Parsons called Steven A. Ballmer […] this morning to give him the news that the deal […] was going to Google…

And you thought Ballmer was pissed already, eh?
