Friday Mar 12 1999
The Wall St. Journal reports in its Friday edition that Tom Taulli says he was fired late Monday from his job as a writer and market analyst for the website Silicon Investor. He says he was told he was being let go because of a dispute over a vacation he took in Hawaii last week. Company officials for Go2Net, Silicon Investor's parent company, contend Mr. Taulli left town without warning them he would be away. The company would say only that Mr. Taulli no longer works for Go2Net, but declined to say whether he was fired. What's more, Mr. Taulli says the company on Monday also cancelled stock options on 34,000 shares, after accounting for a stock split, that would have been worth $2.5-million based on Go2Net's closing stock price of $84 Thursday. He plans to fight to have the options reinstated. Mr. Taulli wrote a daily column for Silicon Investor and a weekly column for another Go2Net unit, StockSite. He has been quoted in scores of stories since he began writing for Silicon Investor in July 1998, giving the site valuable publicity.
