Microsoft sold its half of the cable network in 2005, and it's now planning 
to sell its half of the msnbc.com web site (consistently one of top three 
news sites in traffic, thanks to all those links on the msn.com home page) 
to NBCU--the site will be rebranded nbcnews.com, while the cable channel 
remains the same--Howie Kurtz:

And as usual, the wingnuts and Drudgies are chortling as if it's some sort 
of victory, which it isn't.  I'd love to ask a teabagger his estimate of 
FNC's prime time audience.  It would probably be hilarious.
