I’m not going to go on a rant about CEO pay but I will say that this sort of eye popping compensation for the top people began at the same time that the boards of directors got taken over by the same executives. The board is supposed to represent the interests of the shareholders, not the executives. I believe there is a conflict of interest in serving as both a board member and an executive in the firm and it shouldn’t be permitted. If it weren’t, I imagine some of the more extreme compensation examples would fade away.

Big deal. Many baseball players get 20 million a year to swing a stick at a ball once in awhile.

$41 million and I bet he can’t even hit, dribble or throw a ball...no one is worth $41 million, most people couldn’t even spend that amount in their lifetime. How many technicians would that hire to provide customer service? Why are do they have price increases if they have that much money to throw away. Everyone should lose the cable.

41 million = crony capitalist.

6 billion = politician who can’t be bought.

Wow - and all that in addition to putting up grand new skyscrapers in downtown Philly - no wonder my monthly bill went up six dollars in January (with three fewer channels in the lineup)- somebody has to pay, and it sure won’t be the poor people, who by the way are also getting free internet from Comcast.....

Comcast major outages going on for days.
