@yashar @JBFlint This isn't right. His total comp may be ~$20m — (salary likely $2-3m) — and he likley had to vest once he was fired, which is bad w/ this market. Biggest part of total comp is long-term incentive bonus, which he won’t get for next 2.5 years. So Rice is fine, but not *that* fine. — PolitiTweet.org

David Zaslav did interview Peter Rice for a content job at Warner Bros. Discovery, as @sherman4949 reports — so there *was* a potential job there. It just may not have been the job Rice wanted, because it wasn’t CEO. That job was always going to be Zaslav’s. — PolitiTweet.org
