julia? >> reporter: well, trish, this morning's kickoff panel hits home to all in attendance here at sun valley. it focused on navigating companies through tough economic times, an issue that is particularly close to home for the media moguls who are battling the squeeze of declining ad revenue and also consumer shift online, where they're not used to paying for content. john malone told me he thinks distributors like cable companies have to work together to protect their revenue, saying it's hard to make the transition from free content to paid content online. >> at some point, why would distributors pay retransmission consent for something that's free on the internet? they'll start telling their consumers, hey, if you want a cbs show, get it on the internet. >> reporter: media giants here, including youth corps's rupert murdoch and disney's bob iger are trying to tackle digital distribution. the two companies also have plenty of cash on their balance sheet to enable acquisitions. and old m

joining us for this one is democratic strategist, julia. let's start, though, with tracy. you know, steve ratner, the chief car czar, is an extremely wealthy man. he's worth hundreds of millions of dollars. doesn't he have the right to be driving around in whatever he wants? >> if he's got his money, he should pick up a hybrid. this is as simple as wearing gap jeans at the gap f. you're going to promote something, you wear it and go out there with posters on your forehead screaming, i'm green, i'm in a hybrid. steve ratner has a lexus, an audi, and a mercedes. the the wunderkind drives a hound a. nobody's even driving these american hybrids that we're supposed to be out there pimping around. this is total hypocrisy, and quite frankly, it just goes to show thaw the auto task force is just one big joke. terry: jewel yarks the hypocrisy charge is what rings true with a lot of americans. shouldn't they be driving a prius or a ford energy-efficient car? >> well, you know, when you look at the guy who's driving the toyota, and the wunderkind, he has been driving that for 11 year

frank aarons, julia rozinski and pet pete r moreci and bruce bartlet. i can't help but think of capitalism conquered russia but they are a bunch of capitalist thug. >> if you invest in russia, don't tell anybody that i gave you a diploma, that simple. the price is down, but as soon as it goes up, they'll feel good and excoriate somebody else's oil wealth. >> julia buying rubbles? >> not only not buying rubles. i got a very useless degree in kosovo economics. it's usefuuseless. they have no problem imprisoning anybody that doesn't agree with them. >> not to mention the fact that journalists get murdered at extraordinarily high rates and those crimes never seem to be solved. bruce bartlett, i have a hard time arguing that russia counts much anymore. i'm much more concerned about china and india. >> it depends on what are you talking about. if you are talking about foreign policy, we need the russian's help. they are in a much stronger position to bring influence to bear on places that are important to us, including north korea and afghanistan. so i think

democratic strategist julia roginski, you know how this goes, 20 seconds each.trent, i'm going to start with you. there's talk of a second stimulus package. do we need one? >> well, i sure hope not. i mean, we were sold that the obama plan would create 3.5 million jobs. it hasn't done that he told us it would keep unemployment at 8%. hasn't done that either. tax cuts would have been a far better plan to go on. we were told about shovel-ready projects. there's a lot of shoveling going on nesht was but it's not creating jobs. so i hope there's not another stimulus plan, because the deficit is exploding. >> what's the problem? this one's not working? do we need another one? >> this was scheduled to kick in in the second or third quarter. the administration never said it would happen immediately. we need shovel-ready plans to come on line. and people have been saving their tax cuts, not spending them. that's not the way to stimulate this economy. i thought from the beginning the stimulus package was too small. i still feel that way. >> trent, she's right. why are th

thank you. >> thanks, julia. john donahoe, the ceo of ebay. >> you know, the thing about ebay and amazon, they both put up good quarters. the reason that ebay's response was so much better was that ebay was trading at 13, 14 times and amazon was at 41 times. so you really need -- that disparity is so huge that amazon just couldn't overcome it, no matter how good they put up. >> absolutely. >> absolutely. >> we should keep you updated on some of the headlines that are crossing right now. we'll go out to jim goldman. they're saying they see exciting demand for win 7 and that north american pc demand has normalized. that conference call is going on right now. american express saying that it expects better third-quarter and fourth-quarter u.s. write-offs than had been expected. these, of course, are stories that we are monitoring and we'll bring you the latest on the other side of this break. stay tuned. finally, good news for people with type 2 diabetes or at risk for diabetes. introducing new nutrisystem d, the cli

cnbc's julia boorstin has that story. hi, julia. >> reporter: hi, erin.l, that's absolutely right. the "financial times" is reporting apple and the four major music labels are working together on a plan to encourage consumers to buy full-length albums, the entire album, which is of course much more profitable than just an individual song. apple tells me it doesn't comment on rumors or speculation, but the f.t. reports that the new plan, which is code named cocktail, would include interactive liner notes, which would -- with album purchases. everything from photos, videos, lyrics, and even the ability to play the albums on consumers -- on different computers without using itunes. apple's reportedly working with emi, sony, warner music, and universal music group, who are desperate to boost revenues as sales of single digital tracks have failed to competence yacht for the decline in the cd business. "billboard" executive editor rob levine says one of the music industry's biggest challenges is raising the value of each transaction, that it's more desirable to

that's where we find julia boorstin and sir martin sorrell, ceo of the wpp group. julia?er: that's right. sir martin sorrell runs one of the biggest advertising companies in the world. thank you for joining us. >> a bit better than london or new york. >> reporter: absolutely. beautiful. >> particularly early in the morning. >> so the global ad market is expected to drop about 8.5% this year. the u.s. ad market is going to drop about twice that. when do you see this advertising recession turning -- >> not quite sure if the statistics are right, but i think most people are forecasting the world ad market's going to drop about 6% or 7% with the u.s. being tougher than that. when is it going to get better? danger in forecasting. foolish. i think the second half of this year will look better than the first half, but that's against weaker comparatives last year. our revenues were up 4 3 2 0 in the sequential quarters. therefore we're going to be lapping quarters which are easier to lap. 2010 i think you'll see an anemic mild recovery. but again, it's because of the weaker compa

julia, over to you. >> that's right. the 52 cents, that is a penny better than analysts' expectations and that is the earnings from recurring operations. if you look through these various divisions here, you have a sense of what's going on with the company. we see that they are being impacted, as expected, by the downturn in advertising. the revenues at the media networks division was down 2%. but the segment operating the media networks division down 13%, hit clearly by the downturn in advertising. we're also seeing that the parks and resorts were really affected by the pullback in consumer spending. thanks to some very deep discounting, they did manage to keep the the attendance high. the revenues at the parks and resorts is only down 9%, but the operating income at parks and resorts down 19%. studio entertainment, the movie studios suffering a lot from the decline in dvd sales, which is an issue we're seeing across the media conglomerates. again, entertainment revenues down significantly thanks to that. also, some cha

julia bo julia boorstin catching up with us. >> reporter: good morning, joe. with over 70 consumer businesses, warren buffett certainly is in a position to speak about the economy, telling me that it hasn't started to pick up and that the consumer is still very, very soft. what could help? buffett says more stimulus definitely couldn't hurt. >> in general, i think -- and this is -- i believe in the stimulus and i thought we would believe in another one. but they may be overrated in terms of their ability to end the recession fast. >> reporter: but if you're advocating another one, are they overrated? >> no. i think they're useful. but anyone looking at them as a panamea, but they're using. >> do you think there should be another stimulus? >> i think there should be, but -- >> should we wait until some or more of that pone is out there? >> if you had another one, you would load as little on the christmas tries as possible. but the president said that originally. then congress got into the in it and i think it's too much pep asked him about what he these about o

cn cnbc's julia boorstin is in los angeles with the details. julia. >> hi, melissa. well, a year in the works. microsoft and google are hoping that a ten-year search advertising partnership will help create a real competitor to google search dominance. microsoft will provide its new bing search engine to yahoo sites with no large up front payment, instead sharing revenue with yahoo, which gets to keep 88% of search ad sales for five years sxhaz the right to sell ads for some microsoft sites. yahoo estimates the deal will boost annual operating income by $500 million while saving it $275 million standing alone mic yahoo are not a threat to google. now together it's still going to be an uphill battle but at least they have a fighting chance. we'll see if they can actually pull it off, though. >> search competition is sure to pull down ad prices. wpp ceo sir martin sorrels tells me he is delighted by the deal saying "we think it brings better balance to the search marketplace. anything that brings better balance to the search marketplace would be welcome by our clients.

hey, julia. >> good morning, rebecca. in his first interview since google's announcement on tuesday, eric schmidt tells me the new chrome operating system will be a game changer. it will be free. it will be open source. it will host all of your data on the web. access your documents, music, everything, from any computer. the big question is what kind of competition this poses for microsoft's windows. >> microsoft is certainly a very, very successful operating system vendor. it's probable the case that people will continue to buy microsoft products for a while and they'll also buy these new netbooks. because they're going to get some benefits from the new netbooks that the microsoft offerings can't but they'll still want some of the applications that microsoft has. >> schmidt said that for a while, people will probably continue to purchase microsoft products. so i pushed him on that time frame and whether he really thinks google's new chrome operating system will eat into microsoft's market share. >> well, again, we don't

julia boorstin explains. >> hi, erin. business meetings, networking, conferences, even hiring committees, they're all crucial to business. but now who needs to meet in person? virtual business networks have replaced all of that handshaking. in this economy, there's more pressure than ever to leverage relationships for efficiency and profits. 43 million member business network linked in enables every possible connection. >> i have folks who can help you do their job to help them do their job. >> reporter: they linked mergers and acquisitions, finds the perfect hire, and allows users to poll the network with a question. >> linkedin focuses on how do we pem heem inform productive and how do we help them be a more competitive business, individual professional. >> reporter: the 6-year-old company has been operating profitably since 2007. brought innen estimated one hup $348 in 2008 revenue from subscription service and in a corporate recruiting service. while linkedin is all about professional presentation, some companies take

julia in ohio's with us. hey, julia. your comment or question? >> caller: yes, hi. what a scam, what a scam, what a scam. >> ooh. who's scamming who, julia? >> caller: debbie rowe has scammed the jacksons. and any mother who really cares would have ke wouldn't have kept their children with someone who's an addict. and she can't be too concerned about an 80-year-old man. and why would she need her parental rights when she has never, you know, cashed in on that? and the children are just going to be more psychologically damaged. i mean, when they find out when they get older she sold them twice, it's ridiculous. it's really sad. and the third child's going to be alienated. i just want to cry about this. >> let me ask cooper about that. what about the third child who's not a biological child of debbie rowe? how do you weave that in? will debbie rowe have any contact with blanket? >> we see kids all the time. just because you're biologically related to someone doesn't mean that they're necessarily good for you in your lives. and the opposite is true. look at stepparents

julia taver mason, when did you first meet judge sotomayor?the time i met the judge, interviews for courtships happened ridiculously early. we were in the first or second year of law school. it was broglie 94 or 95 and i have stayed in touch with her ever since. >> alison barkoff, when you apply for a clerkship, do you apply it with a specific judged? >> yes, you do. >> what is the process like? >> like julia, the process has changed over time, but what i applied for corrections, it was pretty early in your law school career. the people applied to a number of judges who were of interest to them and you have an opportunity sometimes to interview with multiple judges. >> how many did you interview with? >> i interviewed with several judges and judge sotomayor really stood out to me during my interview as someone who was very different rate at during our conversation, initially during the interview, not only did she look at my reza man asked me some very searching questions about my background and experiences and some of my riding, but she really
