Departing Yahoo music chief Ian Rogers wasn't "reorganized out" of the company, a source tells us. "The reorg was caused by his departure with two days' notice." Rogers left for all the obvious reasons: to escape both Microsoft and — like others before him — Yahoo Media czar Scott Moore's high-pressure management style. "He was tied of swimming upstream," our source says. "But he was careful to make nice with Scott before he left as to not burn the bridge."
