Yahoo CEO Formally Pwns Michael Arrington

36 sec read

Yahoo’s new CEO Carol Bartz was interviewed by infamous blogger Michael Arrington last week at TechCrunch Disrupt and was less than pleased by his aggressive questioning.

Well known for her x-rated language, Bartz showed her teeth when Arrington implied that Yahoo wasn’t working quickly enough to build it’s profile after last year’s disastrous crash.

The short video above shows Bartz snapping, clearly frustrated with the expectation that she should have already turned Yahoo’s profits around.

“I’ve been here a few months. Give me a break. You are involved in a very tiny company. It probably takes you a long time just to convince yourself what to do. “So fu*k off!”

Bartz is often less than diplomatic with her words, but it’s great to see someone put Michael Arrington in his place. Yahoo was involved in a number of deals in the past week, one with Match.com and one with Nokia.

The full interview can be seen here.
