Comments on: Yahoo gives prime Net real estate to Icahn-bashing site

Internet pioneer has devoted a lot of precious pixels on yahoo.com site to its fight with Carl Icahn over control of the company.

To be fair to the stockholders, shouldn't Yahoo be making a site equally available for Icahn's presentation to be made? If this was for a government seat, the media would have to give equal time to all the candidates. Only giving your own point of view on it and denying anyone else seems kind of desperate on Yahoo's behalf, regardless of the intent.

Shouldn't Icahn spend his time trying to fix BlockBuster.

NetFlix is mopping the floor with them.

DALLAS -- Despite losing a shareholders vote to rival Carl Ichan, Blockbuster Entertainment ceo John Antioco is expected to stay at the helm of the rental chain and on its board. But the long-time Blockbuster chief may have to share power going forward with Ichan and others wanting the chain to reduce spending. [http:// . . . |http:// . . . ]

Is it just me, or does this feel like the a campaign in grade school where instead of candidates talking about what they've successfully done instead of just a straight play attempting to discredit some one else.

It just looks bad... seriously, you've led the company for so many years and you can't defend your position based on your successes but rather merely based on attempting to discredit someone else? I felt bad for them before, but sense everything that somes out is an attempt to discredit as opposed to restore faith/hope... or cite the positive... at this point he's fighting a campaign like someone who was damaged goods would.
