margaret warner has the story. >> warner: the outrage of the "take back wall street" protestors in new york and others around the country are in no small part connected with huge executive pay. median executive compensation more than quadrupled since the the last four decades, while most non-supervisory workers have seen a 10% decline. now, from disclosures required by the securities and exchange commission in end-of-fiscal-year corporate reports, we're learning more about what's behind these pay packages, as well as the so-called "golden parachutes" for c.e.o.s who've been fired. one noteworthy example of late: just last week, the fired c.e.o. of h.p., leo apotheker, walked away with more than $13 million in severance while the company struggles. for more on this, we turn to michael faulkender, a professor of finance at the university of maryland who has published major studies about executive compensation. and james stewart, an author and financial columnist for the "new york times." he wrote about the h.p. deal this week. welcome to you both. james stewart, let me begin with you. fi
