David Zaslav’s package makes him highest paid U.S. executive of 2018

Discovery Inc. Chief Executive David Zaslav received total compensation valued at $129.4 million in 2018, more than three times his compensation the year before, the company said in a securities filing Friday.

The compensation package makes Mr. Zaslav the highest paid U.S. executive of 2018, according to filings so far. His salary in 2018 remained flat at $3 million. The raise is largely the result of a substantial increase in stock-option awards tied to the contract extension Mr. Zaslav signed last year.

So we’re going back to this again? If he’s smart he’ll set up a Foundation...

Well someone's gotta buy that 300' yacht!

Over 20% of 2018 net revenue. That's a...friendly compensation board.

Don’t hate the playa, hate the game

Met this guy several years ago. Couldn’t have been nicer. Good for him.

That's a valuable package

If you don’t know the hustle... it’s you. 🤷‍♂️

Go ahead and say ‘Pay Package’ next time. This is the Internet after all.

CEO pay is completely out of control. It won't end well.

Salaries at Discovery Communications, Incorporated range from an average of $43,706 to $123,179 a year.

Nobody is worth that $

Meanwhile the majority of Americans struggle to make a living, under a tax plan that benefits Zaslav and others. WSJ are you happy with that picture?

Congrats!

Dont hate, get paid.

I'll do the job for half that.

The Highest-Earning Hedge Fund Managers And TradersThe 20 highest-earning hedge fund managers and traders made $10.3 billion combined in 2018. That's a big number, but it is still the lowest such combined earnings figure since the financial crisis. And no one but them can transact for it. That's criminal collusion and a conspiracy is on the way. Better keep an eye that I can't even WISH IN MY OWN FUCKING HEAD that I would want to have that money, from you, with permission, if I want it, when I do, that I do, because MUCHO$$ What did their clients make if anything?
