According to Bruce Schneier -
http://www.counterpane.com/crypto-gram-0302.html
------------------------
An amusing, but irrelevent, incident: A week after the worm, I was
invited to 
speak about it live on CNN. The program was eventually preempted by the
Columbia 
tragedy, but not before the CNN producers invited Microsoft to appear on
the 
segment with me. Microsoft's spokesman -- I don't know who -- said that
the 
company was unwilling to appear on CNN with me. They were willing to
appear 
before me, they were willing to appear after me, but they were not
willing to 
appear with me. Seems that it is official Microsoft corporate policy not
to be 
seen in public with Bruce Schneier.
