Found this odd, anyone smarter than me care to offer opinions on why they wrote it this way?
"Yet Iger reportedly makes $27 million a year, while Netflix just raked in $1.5 billion in net profit in the last quarter."
Why are they comparing a person to a company?
Shouldnt it be disney(3.19B last year) to netflix(1.5B last quarter), or Iger(27 million) to Reedings/Sarandos(35 mill each as co ceos)
*The numbers i used are from a quick google search where they arent taken from the article, please be kind if i found the wrong ones. I dont actually care about the numbers was just trying to match what the article did. Feel free to correct them for everyone elses benefit
I see it more as Disney's CEO saying his company can't afford to pay actors more, and yet they chose to pay him 27mil a year. That's why his salary is relevant in the discussion.
