Want to rule the world Google-style in the news field?

Get News.tv.  It gives you unparalleled brand recognition, needs little marketing to explain its purpose, and you can stick the domain on everything.  Perhaps someone should call the Associated Press and tell them that they cannot afford to let this opportunity go.  If the Associated Press picked up this particular .tv domain and leveraged it, they would do an end-run around all other news organizations, putting themselves on top…

If your business is THE NEWS, its mega cheap for your Multi-Million dollar budgets!!!  Only $1,400/day (if you pay for a year in advance). 

At that price, can you afford not to?  Can you afford to let your competition come in and steal it out from under your noses?  Surely, you can find some way to monetize your existing content (so the additional costs of operating news.tv are minimal) and advertise News.tv across your existing distribution channels to deliver traffic to News.tv the instant you have it running.  Doesn’t News.tv say more about what you can find at that site than News.com? 

It does not take a person with a business background to realize this is a no-brainer in light of the central role the web is playing in our daily lives...we use the web for entertainment, communication, and NEWS!!!

If you do not have the authority to consumate the transaction on behalf of your news organization, have your boss get in touch with me.  Bringing this domain to the attention of your boss should entitle you to a raise...how does 1% of the profits generated by news.tv sound?  Start negotiating the deal!
