Very weird...on air "personalities" on CNN discussing their salaries.

[Atman]

Isn't this a fireable offense at many companies? The "entertainment" correspondent was just on giving her report on TV news anchor's salaries. Apparently Anderson Cooper makes $11 million dollars! That's nearly $250,000 per viewer! I didn't hear all the other salaries they mentioned, but it ended with the two second-string talking heads saying "Well, oh, here we are on the list...$3.85 and hour and a box of paper clips!" Kind of funny, but at most companies this kind of salary talk is verboten.

1. right they are complaining and I'll bet they are in the six figure category

but, boy, they have it so rough.

2. Those talking heads have different contracts than you and I do.

Also, companies discourage talk about compensation among non-union rank and file so the peons don't figure out that the boss plays favorites and that everyone is doing the same work for different amounts.

3. Gloating, bragging 1%ers.

I say hang them all.

5. Technically a violation of DU's ToS, but I know where you're

coming from

On a positive and related note, V.I. Lenin is reported to have quipped that "capitalists will sell us the rope with which to hang them."

6. Oh I'm just advocating for the DP by hanging after a trial and conviction, lol.

4. Everyone's salary should be in a public database. nt
