Heck, on this week’s Gillmor Gang, even +I+ was saying that Zuckerberg should put Sheryl Sandberg into the CEO role and should go and run R&D, basically agreeing with Shel Israel.

John Sculley on Why He Fired Steve Jobs - The Daily Beast
Fate had a doozy in store for the men—and they were all men—who dumped the famously combative Jobs. The upstart they fired eclipsed them by many magnitudes, as emphasized two weeks ago when Apple passed Microsoft to become the most valuable technology company in the world.
Facebook: Calacanis Is Lying
Obviously, the second statement contradicts the first, but this is sort of confusing stuff for any user.
