Carol Bartz Out at Yahoo
Carol Bartz has been fired from Yahoo and replaced, in the interim, by Tim Morse. Bartz sent this zinger of an email to the entire Yahoo staff upon receiving the news:
From: “Carol Bartz”
To: “[email protected]”Subject: Goodbye
To all,
I am very sad to tell you that I’ve just been fired over the phone by Yahoo’s Chairman of the Board. It has been my pleasure to work with all of you and I wish you only the best going forward.
Carol
Clearly a dig at Yahoo Chairman Roy Bostock, who, if Bartz is to be believed, fired Bartz over the phone.
A tangential question: why would anyone want to be CEO of Yahoo these days? No sarcasm. It’s a completely honest question. I can’t think of a single reason.
