CBS to gobble up CNET
Posted by andybeach under: Announcements .
Alerted by (of all things) twitter, I just learned CNET, home of some of my favorite podcasts is going to be bought by CBS.
CNET has done a lot to programtically bring audio and video news and entertainment to the web. Their various properties would surely look attractive to a traditional broadcaster looking to solidify themselves in the game.
Am reserving judment til I here some more news on this, but i really hope they don’t ruin CNET in some way (like Katie Couric)!!
