REED HASTINGS (Netflix)
Douchiest moment: Trashing Comcast after closing a deal with the company.
A day after Comcast CEO Brian Roberts made a snide remark, Netflix CEO Reed Hastings hit back saying the media giant was “pulling profits out of the system.” Despite the fact that he JUST made a deal to start paying Comcast for direct and better access to Comcast subscribers, Hastings turned around and criticized it. “We have no power,” said Hastings. “We had to take the deal. The bigger Comcast gets, the more they charge everyone else.” But honestly, you’re the CEO of Netflix! You know better than anyone behind the scenes the situations that go on with your company. That’s just bad business.
