AOL CEO Approves Yahoo/Microsoft Merger Without Condition

Jerry Yang is lucky AOL CEO Randy Falco isn’t a Yahoo board member, because he’s a staunch advocate of a Microsoft-Yahoo merger. Why? Because it will keep Google busy long enough for AOL to make its big move–whatever that is. “I hope they beat each other’s brains out over search and leave the display market to us,” Falco said in remarks at the Interactive Advertising Bureau annual conference. “I think it’s a mistake. But I think Napoleon said never interrupt your enemy when they’re in the middle of making a mistake.”
