Microsoft, Google, Lee Settle Hiring Dispute

linumax wrote to mention that Google, Microsoft, and Kai-Fu Lee have reached an agreement, after months of negotiation. From the article: "In a brief statement released late Thursday, Microsoft spokesman Jack Evans said the parties had entered into a private agreement that resolved all issues to their mutual satisfaction. He also declined to give any details on the agreement, saying the terms were confidential and that all parties had agreed to make no other statements to the media regarding it. However, he did say that Microsoft was 'pleased with the terms of our settlement with Google and Dr. Lee.'" We originally reported on this back in July.

And this is related to "Your Rights Online" how? Hell, there aren't even any details of the settlement available. Sheesh.

What they're not telling you is this comes but days after Lee was hospitalized with suspicious-looking wounds. Microsoft representatives maintain that they are Lee were "just talking," and Lee claims to have just taken a nasty fall on his way to work. Cleaning crews were spotted, however, removing the remains of a chair covered in blood, and an angry Mr. Balmer proclaimed victory as he was forcibly removed from the negotiations.
