Dave Morgan Out at AOL

Monday, February 11th, 2008

Barely three months after being named EVP-Global Advertising Strategy for AOL’s Platform-A, Dave Morgan is leaving AOL, according to PaidContent.

Dave Morgan sold behavioral targeting company Tacoda to AOL for $275 million in September. Morgan also founded RealMedia, which became 247 Real Media and was sold to WPP for almost $650 million.

This in light of revived talks between AOL and Yahoo, after Yahoo rebuked Microsoft’s $44 billion offer to acquire the portal.

More as details emerge, but no doubt, its good to be Dave Morgan. Not so much for AOL.
