Why not callout everyone?

Bing? http://i.imgur.com/SOmwD.png

Yahoo? http://i.imgur.com/oZmIp.png

So much about this is missing the mark. For example, the supposed Sears quote that Google is ripping off; turns out Sears must have "ripped off" Nikon: http://www.nikon.com/news/2010/0915_d7000_02.htm

That's like calling Ebenzer Scrooge greedy. Bing and Yahoo don't apply.

At the same time, notice that neither Bing nor Yahoo have one of their own sites as the top result. The top result is Nikon.com in both cases. Not the same thing as Google.

I get the same top, non-ad result for all three properties.
