Juan Williams, The O’Reilly Factor – $500,000
Juan Williams was in a crisis when he got fired from the radio station that turned him into a premiere journalist. Thankfully, he’d already proven his worth as a columnist thanks to The New York Times and The Washington Post. Given his political ideals, he was welcomed by Fox with open arms and a big salary.
Said salary is $500,000 to be exact, and it only seems to be going higher for this White House correspondent. He can definitely credit his success to his additional venturesomeness of TV documentaries and best-selling books like Eyes On The Prize: America’s Civil Rights Years’.
Savannah Guthrie – $7 million per year
There’s no denying that Savannah Guthrie is an interesting character all around. From her personal life to career life, she’s a powerhouse. She studied journalism and then later on law, which helped her rise from NBC’s White House correspondent to their chief legal analyst.
This quick-witted first-place law student has tackled a lot of America’s high profile legal proceedings as a presidential debate moderator. This is why she’s got $7 million in earnings every year. She’s not yet done, though, so all we’ve gotta do is wait for what she has to do next.
