This is the text of the e-mail Yahoo Chief Executive Jerry Yang sent to his company's staff on Saturday after Microsoft withdrew its offer to acquire the Internet pioneer.
Yahoo may indeed agree to Microsoft's US$44.6 billion bear hug, but it will be over Jerry Yang's dead body.
After taking a one-two punch from investor activist Carl Icahn and Microsoft on Monday, Yahoo CEO Jerry Yang threw a few punches of his own in an interview in The Wall Street Journal on Wednesday.
Yahoo announced on Tuesday that it will hold its annual shareholders meeting on 1 August, setting the stage for a contentious proxy battle with billionaire shareholder Carl Icahn.
Yahoo has reached a settlement with activist investor Carl Icahn, who will join the Internet company's board.
Friday's New York Post writes that an independent group of Yahoo board members believes Yahoo CEO Jerry Yang may be letting emotions trump his better judgment; and that's why he's opposed to accepting Microsoft's buyout offer.
As Microsoft's deadline for Yahoo to accept its takeover bid passes, the tech world is still waiting for information from either company on their wedding plans.
On Saturday, Microsoft formally withdrew its offer to acquire the search pioneer, at least for now. So what happens next for Yahoo? A deal with Google looks likely.
Nobody, least of all Yahoo and Google, doubted that the two companies' search-advertising deal would escape any antitrust scrutiny.
For a man a few months away from leaving his job, Bill Gates has a lot on his mind.
