Al Sharpton Receives $1M in Pay from His Charity + Will Be Roasted by Legendary Friars Club – Eurweb.com

*Rev. Al Sharpton reportedly earned $1,046,948 from his own charity last year, according to National Action Networks latest tax filings.

Via foxnews.com:

Sharpton got a $324,000 salary 32% higher than his 2017 pay in addition to a $159,596 bonus and $563,352 in other compensation.

The Harlem-based nonprofit which Sharpton controls as president and CEO said the extra cash was to make up for the years from 2004 to 2017 when he didnt get his full pay.

NAN said it hired an executive compensation firm that determined the good reverend was owed $1.252 million but he was generously willing to take $500,000 less.

Sharpton and the nonprofits board also agreed he has now been fully compensated for all the years he was underpaid and received no bonus, the NAN statement said.

Sharpton said he deserved the 2018 raise.

Its a six-day-a-week job and several hours a day and when [the compensation firm] compared it to other companies, other nonprofits, thats the salary that they would get, he said.

Im prepared the Friars Club is the Friars Club, Sharpton told the Daily News Thursday.

Sharpton expects roasters to make fun of his weight loss and his feuds with Trump.

Once you decide to go in the frying pan you cant decide what kind of preparations (or if) theyre going to put salt and pepper on, he said.

At the Friars, we like to say, we only roast the ones we love. This time, were roasting one we adore a national hero, the Reverend Al Sharpton, Friars Club Executive Director, Michael Gyure said in a statement. The stars are turning out to show their respect by being hilariously disrespectful to the Rev and then he gets to give it right back to them!
