Then please enlighten me and propose a solution that is a good solution to ousting their overpaid CEO.

I don't mean overpaid in that "NON-PROFIT EMPLOYEES SHOULDN'T BE PAID SO MUCH MONEY", but that he's getting paid "National PBS" money, when his station is a glorified regional PBS, with a history of shitty dealings with their journalism employees, directly attributed to the CEO.

And he got this gig not because of any knowledge of tv/radio, unless you think running Weston, an environmental testing/cleanup firm, directly relates to broadcast news.

I just think that not donating to a cause or service purely because of the CEO is a doomed outlook that won't ultimately help anyone.

Helps me sleep better at night that I'm not contributing to some shmuck, who actively squeezes his lower employees salary numbers (had a friend who was getting paid chump change), but turns around and begs for money on a pledge drive interrupting an infomercial masquerading as some kind of educational program on a week night.
