Unfounded Rumors, Yacrosoft Edition

Supposedly employees at Yahoo are said to have just received an internal memo time-stamped 8:00 PST, telling them to expect a “major and historical announcement” some time after 2 PM PST. From the mailbag: “People are saying that Yang has agreed to leave his post effective today and that YHOO is again in late-stage talks to sell the whole company to MSFT. Deal is imminent and could be done by tonight. Price being mentioned is $17~$19.”
Update: Andrew Ross Sorkin has spoken with people close to both companies and isn’t buying it.

    Spode,
    First of all, that’s an apostrophe, not a comma.
    Second of all, your correction post doesn’t allude to your 2nd grade spelling acumen. Study homonyms much?
    Hear = Here
    By = Buy
    Rumer = Rumor
    Stick to posting youtube videos, please.

    Oh shit bitches, I’m in serious trouble. Here’s the text message I just received from Bess.
    “Keep it up you FUCKING MORON! We’ll see how funny you really are when I get home joke boy.”
    I better not push my luck so I’m outta here; until we meat again. And one last thing, if you get Habanero Pepper Sauce on your fingers make sure you wash it off before you touch your cock and balls. Almost as painful as buying Yahoo at $30.
    guest @8- Thank you for being there for me almighty guest, semper fidelis.
