    Executive compensation controversy

    WHYY president William J. Marrazzo’s reported fiscal-year compensation drew criticism because it was high relative to executives at larger public television organizations and was highlighted by charity-evaluation commentary. Employees also raised concerns about morale and organizational climate. The controversy concerned WHYY’s nonprofit governance and executive pay rather than a criminal finding.
