The! Biggest! News! of! the! Day! - Not Apple Online Movie Rentals or Earnings Growth

Here are some of the contenders for today's biggest...news...of...the...day...

• A report that says "Apple (AAPL) is in advanced talks with major Hollywood studios to provide online movie rentals"...
• An acquisition by IBM...Big Blue has "has agreed to acquire Telelogic AB"...
• Chatter between General Electric (GE) and Microsoft (MSFT) about a possible bid for Dow Jones (JD)...
