Michael was dragged out of bed at 8AM on Wednesday morning to talk with ABC’s Vinita Nair about the situation at Yahoo, its deal with Google, and where that leaves Microsoft. He wakes up about a minute into the interview when he starts discussing the talent drain at Yahoo and how the deal gives Google an even larger share of search advertising dollars.
At the end, he touches on the antitrust concerns brought up by the Yahoo-Google deal and the prospect of Microsoft coming back with a lower bid down the road.
