It looks as though all the workers at CNET can rest easy, as the purchase of the conglomerate by CBS means an infusion of cash, and probably no layoffs, as there is not much, if any, duplication of purpose.
The buyout is costing CBS 1.8 billion dollars, a drop in the bucket for the Tiffany Network.
One thing I’d like to see - John Dvorak reporting what’s going on in tech each week, at least one time, on the CBS Evening News! ” …and now back to you, Katie!”

This partnership could be really interesting. As technology becomes more important across the board to businesses of all sizes (and just individuals), I think it’s becoming more necessary to put technology issues in the spotlight and blend them with regular news. It’s already happening, but I think having a reputable entity like CNet the opportunity for a wider audience could be good for everyone!
