    Terry Semel implies Lloyd Braun is useless at Yahoo. Again.

    Terry Semel, Yahoo CEO and boss of Lloyd Braun (pictured), this morning:

    Please don't make it look like television... This medium better look like something new.... If what we're doing looks like television, that would be a huge mistake.

    Lloyd Braun's resumé before joining the Yahoo Media Group:

    • Chairman of ABC Entertainment Television Group
    • Chairman of Disney's Buena Vista Television Productions
    • President of Brillstein-Grey Entertainment (film and television talent management firm)
    • Legal representative for actors, directors, and writers (including Seinfeld writer Larry David) at Silverberg, Katz, Thompson & Braun
    • Inspiration for television character Lloyd Braun on Seinfeld

    Don't sweat it, Lloyd. In a week or two, TV will be cool again and you'll be just fine.
