Queen Sarah and Duchess BoomTown Talk Yahoo Layoffs on KQED Radio
Earlier today, TechCrunch Senior Editor Sarah Lacy and I went on Michael Krasny’s Forum show on San Francisco’s KQED public radio station to talk about the Yahoo layoffs earlier this week.
Despite the depressing topic, it was a lively session, which covered a range of issues about the Silicon Valley Internet giant, from its weak morale to the rocky performance of CEO Carol Bartz to the please-fire-yourselves-now board of directors.
During the talk, Lacy declared herself queen, so I dubbed myself a duchess. Thus, we are blog site royalty, which I compared to being the rulers of Latvia.
Sorry, Latvia!
Here’s the show for your listening pleasure (or displeasure, if you are on the how-can-we-miss-you-if-you-won’t-go-away Yahoo board):
