Outside top 25 markets avg. $65k a year. That surprised me and seems to be a miserable career.

Narcissist, they like seeing themselves on camera.

Free clothes but do they take them home? Do desk anchors get pants?

I imagine the bigger the metro, the bigger the salary. Overall, they make most of their money on external advertising. Most do really well plus the fringe benefits of being invited to every major event.

Their salaries have plummeted over the past couple of decades.

That's a decent but not great salary in most of the markets, but really, what do they do? I'm sure it has its stressors but overall it seems like a fairly cushy gig, outside of being recognized in town.

That right there is the career track to a Corporate Communications or spokesperson gig.
I encourage everyone to Google Ron Hunter (the inspiration for the movie Anchorman) if you want an idea of how truly shitty that life can be. If either of his kids read this, sorry.

She looks like she's mean to service staff.

I don’t ever watch the news, I couldn’t tell you anyone in my local market. Not even a weather guy.

Outside Top 25 markets? So that would mean any real market they make a shitload more.
But Augusta GA or Little Rock AR they are making $65k.

The fake tits in the 3rd pic look nice but the hair, jeans, and douchebag plummet her.

I knew a local sports talk guy in Little Rock. I think he made around $30k per year, but was over $200k doing guest spots, advertising for local businesses, etc.
It’s sort of like a waiter. Most of their income is on tips.
