Yahoo chief leaves the company
Calcutta News.Net Tuesday 18th November, 2008
The CEO of Yahoo, Jerry Yang, has decided to resign.
He has said he will leave the company after Yahoo, the company he co-founded, finds his replacement.
During Yang’s tenure, which only lasted 18 months, Yahoo rejected a $47.5 billion takeover offer from Microsoft and failed to close an advertising partnership with Google.
Wall Street analysts have since questioned whether Yang was the right person to lead Yahoo, saying he had done little to restore confidence for any of Yahoo's shareholders, employees or customers.
