Todd Bishop: One of our most popular posts last month was a Q&A with David Webster, the chief strategy officer in Microsoft's central marketing group, in which he explained what the company was thinking when it aired those head-scratching ads starring Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfeld.
As a follow-up, we've put together these excerpts from the rest of our conversation, starting with another burning question: What was the deal with Microsoft's decision to pull its sponsorship of a "Family Guy" special episode last year? Considering the show, shouldn't the company have anticipated that the content might be a little raunchy?
