Is Google Flipping Right Past Bad PR?

Just saw a NYT article about a new google news product called Fast Flip. (Article here, Fast Flip site here.) Basically, Google strips the bulky packaging from news websites, catalogues them as images, and allows readers to flip through them in a manner similar to a conventional newspaper. Clicking on story's image takes readers to the host's site and, of course, its attendant advertising.

Funny thing, though, is that I couldn't find anything in Fast Flip about any of the many lawsuits currently pending against Google . . .
