From the Associated Press

Google Inc. said it had struck a content-sharing deal with two organizations to partly settle a dispute in Belgium over news articles available through the Internet search engine.

But Google still faces a bid by Belgian newspapers to get the company to pull the news content unless it pays the newspapers or receives their permission.

In September, a Belgian court threatened the Mountain View, Calif., company with daily fines of $1.3 million until it removed the content.
