> Verizon Policy Blog:  New York Times' Story is Mistaken
> The NYT article regarding conversations between Google and Verizon is mistaken.  It fundamentally misunderstands our 
> purpose. As we said in our earlier FCC filing, our goal is an Internet policy framework that ensures openness and 
> accountability, and incorporates specific FCC authority, while maintaining investment and innovation. To suggest this 
> is a business arrangement between our companies is entirely incorrect.

> PC World:  Net Neutrality Deal May Not See Wider Support
> A Google spokeswoman declined to comment on talks between her company and Verizon, but she denied a New York Times 
> report that said the two companies were negotiating a tiered service agreement that would give Google services faster 
> network speeds than some competitors.  That story "is quite simply wrong," said Mistique Cano, manager of global 
> communications and public affairs at Google. "We have not had any conversations with Verizon about paying for 
> carriage of Google traffic. We remain as committed as we always have been to an open Internet."
