Call it $12 million with benefits. Plus, they all have stock options in the new comapny Sounds like Techcrunch could use some of those editors.

  Perhaps where I work costs are out of control (likely), but health care and benefits run closer to 35% of salary

    Benifts tend to cap out so 40k /year for someone making 200k might not be unreasonable. Granted, social secuirty and heathcare both cap out, if they start adding a free car then benifits can keep going up. He is forgetting about is travel expences and a subscription to the AP etc. But his extra 50% buffor is probably not that far off but let's double it and say 34 million a year. That's 34million$ * (1000 page views / 0.25$) / 52 weeks = ~650 million page views a week. Which is probably not that unreasonable. However, 50 reporters are not going to cover a fraction of what the The New York Times covers.

      Yeah, I think the preference for small and nimble disregards the power that a large organization can throw around when needed.
