Providing the actual data rather than just a link was entirely appropriate and a highly-effective thing to do. It screams out viscerally that this guy is a Democrat, and not just a lukewarm one - look at some of the extremists whose campaigns he has funded (although you could have gotten that just by reading to the end of the story - doesn't it make you feel warm and fuzzy inside when a CEO pats himself on the back by telling everybody how little he makes, as a multiple of the salary that other employees make, and how rotten the other CEOs are who make larger salaries, but then it turns out that he has stock worth $150 million - typical Democrat hypocrite)...
The only thing I really care about is how he treats his employees. It's his money to do with as he wishes. You can find hypocrites on both sides.
