Yahoo Board Reportedly Set To Meet & Decide
Yahoo

The Yahoo Board is supposed to convene today to thrash out whether or not to accept Microsoft’s $44.6 billion acquisition offer, try to get Microsoft to sweeten the pot, or resist and hammer out an outsourcing deal with Google, according to TechCrunch.

Based on what the blog (http://www.techcrunch.com/) has heard from unidentified sources, Yahoo’s outside advisors have been telling it to capitulate and take the Microsoft deal.

However, it says, a bunch of resistant Yahoo senior executives backing the Google option will state their case to the board.

The test is whether it can stop Google from taking over DoubleClick and becoming, in Microsoft's words, the 'dominant pipeline for all forms of online advertising' as well as 'the largest database of online user data in the world.' The Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Antitrust, Competition Policy and Consumer Rights held a webcast two-hour hearing Thursday afternoon on Google's proposed $3.1 billion acquisition of DoubleClick, the advertising company Google outbid Microsoft for.
