See: cbs.marketwatch.com Corrections Corrections & clarifications Last Update: Editorial Policy Letters to the Editor In a headline on April 22, CBS.MarketWatch.com quoted an Intel executive as saying the chipmaker was in a content-sharing pact with Data Broadcasting.

Data Broadcasting holds a large interest in MarketWatch.com, the publisher of this Web site. -------------------- Headlines for: INTC CBSI 04/23 17:47 Corrections & clarifications CBSM 04/23 17:41 [INTC] DATA BROADCASTING WOULD USE INTEL WEB-HOSTING IF ON "COST-EFFECTIVE" BASIS.
