- Although BuzzFlash at Truthout is No Fan of Nancy Brinker, the $5 Million a Year Salary Attributed to Her on the Daily Beast Appears to be Incorrect. According to the Latest Komen 990, Brinker received $417,000 in "Compensation" from Komen in in FY 2010. Now, Brinker may be making a salary from related work, but it does not appear to be $5 million from Komen. After being informed about the gross error from BuzzFlash, Daily Beast changed compensation figure, but didn't explain or acknowledge error.
- Daily Beast: “Komen plays hardball and is determined to stay on top,” says a member of another cancer organization, who declined to be identified. "Let’s be honest about all this: people think of breast cancer as a charity, but it’s really a major business.”
