This article compares the wages not of all CEOs, but of 300 of the best paid ones.

Comparing the top tiny fraction of one side to millions on the other is sure to get headlines for outrage.

BLS lists CEO pay avg as $200k. [1]

I suspect if you compared the top 300 compensated employees you'd find they get massive multiples of median CEO pay too.
