Interesting. You'd think there'll be a minor halo effect with Google getting very, very slightly more favorable press after this... no one will consciously notice it, but due to human nature the line will move just a little tiny bit. I wonder if there's any linguists that could analyze phrasings and make a prediction. Like, for instance, a phrasing "failed to meet expected earnings" or "fell short of expected earnings" is used. Very slight difference, but for a billions-dollar company getting covered multiple times every single day in the media, it could add up to a lot more than $5 mil.
