My local Pittsburgh independent stations are in trouble -- WYEP is a great music station, WESA is the NPR station -- operated by one entity, PCBC. PCBC has waded into podcasting over the years but have never capitalized on it. Management says costs are going up but cutting their outrageous compensation is never considered. The three PCBC positions:
Key Employees and Officers Compensation
TERENCE O'REILLY (PRESIDENT AND CEO) $289,400
JOHN SUTTON (VP, AUDIENCES AND REVENUE) $197,810
CHRISTOPHER CAPATO (VP, FINANCE AND ADMINISTRA) $150,974
Those are relatively low wages for management when you look at how much management teams of other nonprofits are making. I worked at a museum with a $20M annual budget and the Director was making $700k. My current CEO, also at a nonprofit is making $500k, on a $10M budget mostly funded by government grants. I’ve worked for 7 nonprofits, and what the President is earning here is lower than any CEO/Director was/is earning that I have worked for.

"Everyone is worried about digital but not us!" Didn't Kendall Roy say that?
