As the Inquirer noted last week, Comcast paid chief operating officer Stephen B. Burke $34 million last year, while ceo and lead shareholder Brian Roberts collected $27 million, with millions more in the pipeline.

That would rank the Comcast bosses 2nd and 3d among all U.S. corporate executives, behind Occidental Petroleum boss Ray Irani but ahead of Walt Disney boss Robert Iger, IBM boss Samuel Palmisano, and everybody else, if Burke and Roberts had been included in the annual Hay Group/Wall Street Journal executive compensation study published here on 1 April.

Read more details and info on Comcast's May 20 annual meeting at Philadelphia's Pennsylvania Convcention Center, in Comcast's annual 14-A report at the Securities and Exchange Commission website here.
