The Register used to follow up on that before they turned MS advertising
partner.  Wired used to try to get to the bottom of technology issues,
not necessarily the tactics, but at least the issues, but not any more.
 Maybe Groklaw is the forum for investigative reporting in IT?

Rob Weir's blog entry from Sunday mentions that he hears MS is flying in
