"Microsoft divested itself of its stakes in the MSNBC channel in 2005 and in msnbc.com in July 2012."
I thought their Edge browser was still promoting links to MSNBC, but looking at Edge now, I see the links are to MSN.com which is a completely different thing and actually a Microsoft news portal.
Interesting the news channel is still called MSNBC though even though Microsoft doesn't have any ownership in it anymore.
