Thanks to the SEC, Yahoo is not required to disclose his email communique to his troops.
Here's the email last friday...hmm wonder what you guys think about all this!?
"fellow yahoos:
since we talked to you this morning, there’s been a lot of media coverage and industry chatter about microsoft’s unsolicited proposal to acquire yahoo!. we know you’ve been hearing and reading a lot about this. that’s why we wanted to reach out to all of you at the end of the day to emphasize a few things that we hope will give you some more context about this proposal, the process that our board is taking, and what you can expect in the days ahead..."
It's funny how they are saying this as if the merger rumor was not made aware to them. In fact, this time last year, there have been much talk about Microsoft buying out Yahoo.
"second, we can’t let any of the noise we’re hearing around this situation distract us from our core mission. it’s critical that we continue to focus on running our business, executing our strategy and delivering value to all of our users, advertisers and publishers."
It's great that the chief Yahoo is asking his troops to stay Focused! good job i think :)
And TODAY, Mr Yang sent out another email ...
"roy and I have communicated about the thorough review process our board is going through right now. the board is focused on maximizing the value of yahoo!’s tremendous assets for our shareholders. and it is going to take the time it needs to do it right."
The way I interprete this..I think yahoo is trying to shop for a better deal. Sorry News corp already said no. Time warner wouldnt want to get sucked into buying another over priced assets...a la AOL!
here's the complete email
Wonder wat you guys think?
