Comments on: Yahoo statement rejecting Icahn-Microsoft search buyout proposal

Yahoo issues a statement rejecting joint-proposal by Microsoft and Carl Icahn to buy the Yahoo's search business.

Microsoft and Icahn are a bunch of vile, corporate raiders. Their greed and selfishness is beyond words. I hope Yahoo can ward off the attack.

not to mention they are holding out for a higher price from dreamland without caring about shareholders or their employees.

their own executives have jumped ship after losing confidence in yang

[darkr]

ummm check again YANG and the board have both went against the shareholders wishes
a board has to operate for the shareholders once its become public
yang is selling his business slowly to google with NO clear plan
how does giving google search income help their own search business?
they invested millions in a new search engine software panama now throwing it away by selling ADs to google
i'm sorry but thats bad business Yahoo has lost steady market share to google while yang has been boss there needs to be a change

I'd rather see yahoo go to the ground then have these slimeballs take over it.
If Budweiser can keep InBev away then i'm sure yahoo can as well

That just maybe what Yang is thinking...

This isn't a buy-out offer.

It's a home invasion by the creatures from Alien.

Nuke 'em, Jerry!
