    Terry Semel would have appeased Nazi Germany

    Terry Semel - ValleywagThe Wall Street Journal buries this tidbit in the middle of a blog post about Terry Semel's talk at the D Conference. The Yahoo CEO went all Vichy France when asked about Nazi collaboration:

    One attendee asked Mr. Semel if Yahoo would have cooperated with Nazi Germany the same way it has with China.

I don't know how I would have felt then."

    "Po-tay-to, po-tah-to. You say 'Nazis,' I say 'business partners.'"
