Jerry Yang: “We’re Done”

That’s the head­line over at TechCrunch. Pretty sim­ple right, one would almost infer from the quo­ta­tion marks that that’s actu­ally what the Yahoo CEO said. I mean, I didn’t go to no fancy jour­nal­ism school, but I do seem to recall from my fifth grade English class that quo­ta­tion marks imply that some­one actu­ally said what’s between them.

Apparently Michael Arrington missed that day of school, because not 2 para­graphs into his lit­tle hit piece we get this admission.

And while Yang never actu­ally said the words quoted in the title above, his tone and body lan­guage screamed “We’re Done.”

So, what you’re say­ing Michael, is that you made that quote up for your head­line. That, my friend, is the work of a click-whoring jackass.
