Addressing recent speculation that Google might find the New York Times an attractive buy at, say, $4 billion, David Eun, Google's VP of Content Partnerships, says not so much.

"We feel like we have a great relationship with the Times," Eun tells I Want Media. "We hope that they're very successful. But what they do as a company -- with journalists, news bureaus, thinking about what people want to read, producing a newspaper -- that's not what we do."

So, media companies have nothing to fear from Google?

"I think another way to say it is that I don't think they should be concerned about Google being a competitor, or a source of headache. We're part of the Internet; we're part of the technological transformation that everyone's experiencing.

"We're here because we want to partner with them, because our business model is based on connecting users with their content and bringing advertisers to their content. Every quarter we pay out over $1 billion in rev share to our AdSense partners. Google is a valuable company to work with."
