This seems to me huge news, representing a major change in how we are  
going to get news in the future and with a large effect on newspapers.

> A fascinating announcement from Google about an arrangement with  
> four of the world’s major wire services that will see their content  
> featured more prominently on Google News. As far as I can tell,  
> this deal has one major loser: namely, the thousands of newspapers  
> that use content from those services, and are now going to see that  
> traffic disappear.
