Larry David Slams ‘Seinfeld’ Investor Steve Bannon for ‘Profiting From the Work of Industrious Jews!’
[...] as a New Yorker profile Monday revealed that “Seinfeld” co-creator Larry David is very unhappy that the former Breitbart News boss benefited financially from the show’s success.
He was brought in to help Westinghouse Electric negotiate a minority stake acquisition in Castle Rock Entertainment — the producer of the iconic Jerry Seinfeld comedy — a person familiar with the deal told TheWrap.
[...] in the New Yorker story, Connie Bruck noted that Bannon’s profit participation in “Seinfeld” may have been capped out and paid out around 1995, when the show entered syndication and Turner Broadcasting merged with Time Warner.
[...] Bruck reported that no “Seinfeld” profit participations were included when Bannon submitted an “income and expense delcaration” in April 1997 in connection with his divorce from his first wife, whom the magazine did not name.
