If you really were following this issue of excess stock options, WITH RESPECT TO INTEL, not Disney, you might come to the conclusion that Intel was very stingy with stock options five years ago and that it has been only recently the the issue of Excess Compensation has come up.

But, I am glad to know that you are unalterably against excess compensation in general. By the way, do you have an opinion on motherhood?

As far as Eisner is concerned, the problem of his compensation has been apparent since at least 1995. If you have been following that company, you would know that Warren Buffett sold his 2.4 MILLION shares in DIS, because of the compensation to Eisner, and to Mike Ovitz, the ex-president of Creative Artists, who became president of Dis after the death of Frank Wells. And, who could not remember the issue of Jeffery Katzenburg who sued dis because Eisner stiffed him on his salary and WON the $500,000,000 cash(!) in court.

And today, DIS announced that Eisners comp increased 500% for 2003.

But I am sure you knew and posted about this 5 years ago, also.
