Slate on Verizon, Google, and Net Neutrality

"While both Google and Verizon quickly denied the NYT report, the
newspaper says it's standing by its story. If the Times is right,
this content-for-cash scheme would be the greatest scandal in
Google's history. We could term it "Internet Payola," after the
practice of record labels paying radio stations to play their
songs."

Lauren's comment:
Again, I would emphasize the desirability of withholding judgment
until we move beyond speculation and rumor -- and have rather entered
the realm of facts, one way or another.
