A big change has comeGoogle GOOG logo in the way we receive financial news from Google (GOOG). The company recently announced that it was doing away with financial newswire releases, in favor of distributing company financial news through its own website(s). Google spokesperson Jane Penner stated it this way: "We felt it made a lot of sense, given that we're a technology company and that we announce virtually all of our company news on our blogs."

The change is almost insignificant, really, when we consider that Google is a glass-walled corporation anyway. What news happens at Google comes out of Google and gets splattered every which way. There's almost no escaping it.

Lehman Bros. (NYSE: LEH), the once-proud investment banking firm that's seen its stock tumble from $74 to under $13 in the past year, has a solution to its problems: bring back the investor relations person who was the company's mouthpiece back when investors didn't know about the huge unchecked risks Lehman was taking.

Shaun Butler had run investors relations for the company since it went public in 1994 before retiring at the beginning of February, according (subscription required) to The Wall Street Journal.

It's not a material change, and there's probably nothing much to be read into it. Lehman is reportedly not in desperate need of more cash (although they also said that about Bear Stearns) and is considering a share buyback to boost its stock price. The company appears to see its problems as more perception related than operational, and obviously believes that bringing back a familiar face and voice will ease investors' nerves.

MarketWatch has reported that the company is unlikely to be able to find a buyer because most banks have their own issues to deal with. So it looks like Lehman will have to win back the street on its own.
