Google and the Clear Channel demon

[Travis]

First Google buys DoubleClick[1] and then today announces a "strategic
multi-year agreement" with Clear Channel[2] makes me want to roll my
eyes. Both[3] companies[4] are pure, unadulterated scum in my webbook.

But then on the other hand, if both these things mean that I keep
getting to use Google Reader, Google Calendar and Google Everything
Else for ~free~, can I really complain?
