Long time lurker here....great forum.
Anyway can't help but wonder what kind of money these people make? I'm talking the Mackel bros, hot arse Randi Rousseau and stuff. Are they ballers?
Figured the OT might know something.

News Anchors who are practiced in their profession and carry more than 10 years of experience make up approximately one-half of News Anchors. Pay fluctuates from $30K to $130K per year, but expected earnings average $56K per year. Overall cash earnings for News Anchors stretch from $30K on the lower end to $130K near the top, and the heftiest packages can encompass around $15K from bonuses and $50K from profit sharing.

I can help you with this as I used to be a producer at a station in Tyler. (at the time it was market 111)
Depending on their seniority, what time they were on the desk, and how much editorial work they did, our anchors made anywhere from $60k-$100k. There were a few anchors (a morning and a 5pm) that doubled as reporters who were on the low end of the scale. The 6/10 anchors and the longtime morning guy made the most.
The reporters (who did the vast majority of the work) were getting absolutely boned though. They were making $20k-$25k.

From the few people I've known who have been local news personalities, they make "ok" money ($50-$75K). There's no shortage in the supply of talent. For every reporter, there are probably 100 people who are trying to get that job (sending in reels, current producers, etc.). The main anchors who have been around for awhile in small/middle markets are probably making somewhere around $75K - $100K if I had to guess.

Tamica's fine arse ain't getting out of bed at 3am to get all dolled up to report the traffic from 5 to 9am for less than 100k a year, IMO.
If she does, she's not using her body correctly.

Doesn't George Sells live in CCLA? Not sure if it isn't family money though.

The men make more money than the women. No source to back that up, but this is America dammit.

I work at a smaller market news station... 89th largest media market. I know our anchors and chief meteorologist are the highest paid people on the news staff, I know its 6 figures. And our station is dead last in the market in news ratings, I'd imagine the anchors at the other stations make more.
At larger markets they command more especially if they have been around a while and are a household name.
