MEDIA POST — Dec 22 — Google will pay $1 billion for a 5% stake in AOL.
The deal more deeply integrates AOL's content pages into the Google
network, and allows the AOL sales force to sell image ads that will
appear within Google's AdSense network of publishers. One of Google's
goals is to become more of a comprehensive one-stop shop for media
buyers. FULL ARTICLE @ MEDIA POST
