    Also, reportedly, Megyn Kelly will be paid $69 million more dollars after “parting ways” with NBC. One thing in common across the political spectrum: elites only fail upwards. Why is everyone so surprised that people vote for whoever promises to, somehow, burn it all down.https://twitter.com/davidenrich/status/1055500824565215233 …

    This is crazy. Google forced a top executive to resign because he faced credible accusations of sexual misconduct. And then Larry Page praised him publicly, and Google paid him $90 million. Amazing story @daiwaka @ktbenner @puiwingtam https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/25/technology/google-sexual-harassment-andy-rubin.html …

        There needs to be a deep dive into the structure of such contracts for CEOs and top media talent. They shouldn't be allowed to walk away with such money in cases of illegal behavior. Kelly falls into a grey area--abhorrent behavior isn't illegal.

        They wouldn't be so anarchistic if they were paid to fail upwards,too

        Do something inappropriate, you do get fired but get paid tons of money. OR you’re blamed for something you didn’t do, have your life traumatized and then get paid a ton of money. Either way, BIG BUCKS! .Would either scenario happen in your life? NO

        respectfully disagree, they vote for whoever promises to put them in the same position as Kelly (and trump), burning it down is about getting rid straw men who are keeping them from their right to ascend

        Meg had a good agent, has new one now and a fresh strategy. She is looking after N.1 like she always has - sexual harassement at Fox did not bother the careerist. She has the money but not the respect she craves. And she will probably sue if NBC doesn’t give her the money.

        The only problem with the “burn it all down” approach is that the rich somehow walk out of the flames unscathed while it’s us everyday folk who end up in the embers.
