MSNBC – Microsoft and NBC have announced that they are ending their online news partnership. The MSNBC.com web site will now become NBCNews.com and Microsoft will create its own news site. Early next year, MSNBC.com will re-launch as a stand-alone site for the cable channel MSNBC. Comcast, the media company that owns NBC, will acquire Microsoft’s 50 percent stake in the joint venture. MSNBC.com and its associated sites have more than 50 million monthly visitors.
