Do people actually want quality? I don't think so. I think they want humor, personalities, different perspectives, social integration, and probably most importantly they want some blogger to read an 8 page article and summarize it into 2 or 3 paragraphs for them. Turning Bing into the news stand doesn't address the reality that people's conduits for information have fundamentally changed. I don't think there's anyway to go back at this point. Additionally I have a hard time believing 1000 major publications would get into bed with Microsoft on this. It's too risky and Microsoft's track record on the web is comically bad. They could get maybe a few dozen maybe. Would anyone miss them?
