Over the past several years, the New York Times Co. has consistently underperformed its peers.

Underperformance benchmarked to peers is a more convincing argument for dismissal of the management team than the increase in compensation albeit the decrease in market value of the company, which is not infrequent. If the management continues to destroy the value of the company, eventually, it will be a target of acquisition and existing shareholders will recoup the losses with new management, hopefully.

It could not really be acquired, because the Schulzbergers own the shares that have the majority of the votes. If they don't sell, nothing can happen.
