Mr. Schmidt Goes to Washington September 21

“The Power of Google: Serving Consumers or Threatening Competition?” That’s the title of the Senate subcommittee hearing on Google’s growing dominance of the Internet, which now has an official date: September 21. The event’s star witness: Google Chairman Eric Schmidt, who overcame his reluctance to put in an appearance after the subcommittee threatened to use its subpoena power to compel him to appear.
