Lost Remote answers some of the questions we had about yesterday’s 60 Minutes/Yahoo! deal:
“Yahoo will sell the advertising, and CBS will hire 5 or 6 people to handle the content. The two companies will share in the ad revenue.”

And so the venerable muckraking program — famed for giving allegedly crooked execs the night sweats — is being fitted for a new audience via a fresh medium.”
