Disney announced in a security filing on Friday that Steve Jobs will receive no compensation for serving on the companies board of directors.  At the request of Jobs, the board agreed to withhold money that is normally paid to board members.  Jobs, who serves as the CEO of Apple, receives an annual salary of $1.  A similar stance was taken while he was running Pixar.
