Comments on: Icahn, Shareholders Want Yang Out of Yahoo http://www.marketingpilgrim.com/2008/06/icahn-shareholders-want-yang-out-of-yahoo.html Internet Marketing News Fri, 10 Feb 2012 17:00:40 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: RIchard Srery http://www.marketingpilgrim.com/2008/06/icahn-shareholders-want-yang-out-of-yahoo.html/comment-page-1#comment-50092 RIchard Srery Sun, 15 Jun 2008 13:31:40 +0000 http://www.marketingpilgrim.com/?p=5349#comment-50092 Icahn has a proven track record in business, Yang with all respect has limited experience. Granted he has loads of money, but that itself does not make one a great business person. Icahn has spent years honing his skills and if it were my money it would be on Icahn. Yang had his turn at the helm, Yahoo profits are sinking and certainly not competative witht he like of Google. I think that a Microsoft Yahoo merger would not only be good for MS and the balance of Yahoo as a company but would also spark greater innovations for the search industry as a whole.
