Neil Budde, the founding editor of WSJ.com recruited to run Yahoo News three years ago, plans to leave the company, a source tells us. The rumor comes as Scott Moore ascends to a new role, adding Yahoo's entertainment sites to his current news and finance gig. Sources tell us Moore, while he has his hands full, is at least aware of Budde's bad news. Not that it comes at a good time. Says one tipster: "To [Moore's] credit he's a very good news guy, but he also had Neil Budde working for him." Can anyone confirm what Budde's up to next — and whom Moore might find to replace him?
Is Neil Budde leaving Yahoo News?

hmmm... if true, that would be a another body blow for Yahoo. Neil is talented and level headed.
I give up, Jeff Gerstmann?
