Groupon Mason fired - chicagotribune.com:
"After he was fired Thursday, Andrew Mason wrote a note to his Groupon colleagues filled with the same offbeat humor, charm and candor that defined his tenure as chief executive of the daily deals company he co-founded.
'After four and a half intense and wonderful years as CEO of Groupon, I've decided that I'd like to spend more time with my family,' the letter began. 'Just kidding — I was fired today.'"
