While sharing contents across multiple blogs on the same site is pretty easy - just hook into pre_get_posts, switch_to_blog( $content_blog_id ) and in the the_posts filter, restore_current_blog() - it's not so easy in other situations..

Why don't you just use the WordPress MU Domain Mapping Plugin? http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-mu-domain-mapping/ Should do exactly what you need.
