Nothing the linked blog post suggests Microsoft was "blindsided". Where did the Axios article get that "one minute" bit from?

Really?

Microsoft, which has invested billions in OpenAI, learned that OpenAI was ousting CEO Sam Altman just a minute before the news was shared with the world

They don't support that statement in any way. It's not even attributed to anyone at MS. Where did it come from?

Nope. There are two links. You’re probably only looking at the blog post.
