In both cases, Apple and CNN have gone with Prototype and Scriptaculous. I should say up front I'm a big fan of jQuery and Interface, but I'm wondering why two big sites like this would adopt Prototype when other high-profile sites like Technorati have adopted jQuery.
Just cuz.
From what I understand, things like this are generally much less of a
"decision" than simply what the developer knows and likes. Feature requirements will of course trump that if it becomes a factor, but all things being equal this is pretty arbitrary. I doubt "Apple" and meetings were involved in the eventual use of Prototype. They have a team that builds their site, and the ones responsible for the scripting know Prototype.
