Yahoo has fired its chief executive officer Carol Bartz and named the company’s chief financial officer Tim Morse as interim CEO.

“I am very sad to tell you that I’ve just been fired over the phone by Yahoo’s chairman of the board,” Bartz said in an email reportedly sent to Yahoo employees. “It has been my pleasure to work with all of you and I wish you only the best going forward."

The folks at Tech Crunch are in a froth over the removal of Michael Huffington and the future of their blog-news site.

People here on FR don’t know, but Yahoo has seen on onslaught of Patriots taking over, especially on Yahoo Answers.

So I’m not surprised by this news.

If you FReepers have time, drop in and check out the NEW Yahoo. It is getting comfortable there...

Cheers.

Thanks jimbo123.

I've just been fired over the phone by Yahoo's chairman of the board

I think she should have been fired over the balcony railing, but maybe that's just these Hoffa martinis talking.

Yes, but don’t forget that AOL single-handedly provided at least ten free coasters to every single American.
