About this episode
Yahoo is at a critical inflection point. Despite a big user base—from Yahoo Finance to Yahoo Sports to Yahoo News—the media company hasn’t reclaimed the buzz of its early days. CEO Jim Lanzone joins Rapid Response to talk about the fear of being “left behind” and how he’s pushing the brand to shed its skin. He explains the wide-ranging implications as AI remakes search engines into answer engines and shares insights about the line between fantasy sports and gambling. Plus: lessons he brought to Yahoo from his time as CEO of Tinder.
