The edited headline "Employee – CEO pay gap historically wide" here is wrong. The Employee - CEO gap is higher (ratio 295) than last year (ratio 268) but lower than in 2021 (ratio 324).

If you're gonna make up a headline, don't make up one that is factually false.

Sorry about that - I tried to shrink the original to fit hn, but gave up after a few attempts.

I'd argue the gap is still atypically wide, these past few years, though.

The gap is atypically wide, perhaps "Employee – CEO pay gap rises" would have the same intent without the factual inaccuracy?
