How much does the CEO make?

Post by sinklair » Mon Sep 07, 2020 12:16 am

At a time when stations have hiring freezes, layoffs, furloughs, and pay cuts for line workers at local TV stations, it seems those same sacrifices don’t extend to the big bosses.

Former 25-66 GM/egomaniac/accountant in chief laid off several high priced talent so he could make his cost savings goals... then only to jump ship... and get a big pay raise... despite leaving a station that never rose out of the ratings and revenue basement.

As for the big boss — Sinclair CEO Chris Ripley... it was his decision to limit pay increases to 1.5%... only to see his compensation raise by 33%... to $9.9 million.

Must be nice to tell your workers to sacrifice all while you’re cashing in.

No CEO is worth that type of money.

Writing a letter to the CEO of Sinclair and telling Chris Ripley to take a pay cut I'm sure if you ask the GM of the station you can get his number as well.
