The Clintons' Beef With the Media (WaPo)
Eugene Robinson: The theme of press bias is woven through the Clinton campaign's narrative of the story thus far. There are two basic allegations: that journalists look at Obama uncritically while subjecting Hillary Clinton to microscopic scrutiny; and that we react with hair-trigger reflexes when attacks on Obama have the slightest whiff of racism but don't seem to notice, or care, when Clinton is subjected to rank sexism.
Gannett, Hearst, NYT Co., and Tribune Create Online-Ad Network (WSJ)
Gannett Co., Hearst Corp., the New York Times Co. and Tribune Co. are setting up the network as a stand-alone company called quadrantOne. Like a consortium created by Yahoo Inc. and a group of newspapers last year, it will allow national advertisers to buy space on certain of the Web sites operated by their newspapers in a bid to capture new sales as revenue at their print editions evaporates.
Google Tests Video Ads on Search Results Pages (NYT/Bits)
Google's power and wealth come from the $16 billion a year of advertising that it sells. Yet on its most important pages, the results from its Web search engine, it has limited ads to nothing more garish than a dozen words of text. That is about to change. On Thursday, Google started testing video ads on some pages of search results. And it is developing ad formats with images, interactive maps and other more elaborate features.
Why CNBC Threw Barron's Off Its Air (CJR)
Dean Starkman: Barrons published a tough story last summer on Jim Cramer, concluding that the manic and popular star of CNBC's Mad Money program did not, for all his bluster to the contrary, beat the broader market with his stock picks. The story sparked a quiet but surprisingly fierce feud between the two business-news organizations, one that seems out of proportion to the story that caused it.
Analyst: GE Should Split Off NBC (AP via Yahoo)
JPMorgan analyst C. Stephen Tusa Jr. said a systematic breakup of the business through several potential deals would create more value than a sale or spin-off of NBC. Tusa said his analysis suggests that NBC may be valued at $45 billion in a break-up, which is $10 billion to $15 billion more than what is implied in GE's stock price.
Star Jones in Vagina Monologues (Page Six)
Star Jones has a job! The former Court TV host, who was let go from her contract last month, is performing in The Vagina Monologues tonight in Washington, DC, to raise awareness and end violence against women and girls. While the gig won't pay as much as her $8 million-a-year job at Court TV, Jones is happy to give her all in the skit titled "Short Skirt."
