Jerry Yang Dumping Yahoo! Shares (YHOO, MSFT)
,----[ Quote ]
| Yahoo! Inc. (NASDAQ: YHOO) holders probably
| never want to hear the name Jerry Yang again.
| Well, those same holders will love thisâ
| Tonight after the close a filing at the SEC
| from Yahoo! showed that Jerry Yang is going to
| be selling stock in the company. David Filo,
| the other Yahoo founder, is also selling
| shares. Normally insider selling or founders
| selling is viewed with some caution. That
| doesnât seem to be the case here, and for good
| reason.

Corn Farmers Against Google?

| How do you know the organization, and the op-ed, weren't created by LawMedia
| Group at the behest of some well-funded clients? If they did their jobs
| right, you don't know.
|
| Some of them have left digital fingerprints here and there, though, says
| Declan McCullagh, in a blockbuster of a report exposing the intellectual
| whoredom offered for various important issues. Shortly after Microsoft hired
| LawMedia, for example, legislators, national agencies, and news outlets
| received pointed complaints from coalitions of farmers, rural voters, and
| geeky Latinos about how Google's advertising deal with Yahoo would wreck
| everything.
|
| [...]
|
| Don't call them a PR firm or a lobbying firm though, Law Media â which has a
| ton of lawyers working for them tooâis a "public affairs firm" specializing
| in producing "remarkable coalitions" for anything one might need a coalition
| for.
