Check out IT Database's latest report
Business Press Technology Coverage for a fascinating look at how business publications cover the technology industry. Tech gets far less coverage than its finance counterparts even though it's a huge part of our country's economic engine.

Apple (32%) | Cisco (18%) |
Google (28%) | Microsoft (12%) |
Twitter (12%) | VMWare (12%)
