CNBC TV Host Pay

Quote from a529612:

Is it just me? I think Bloomberg is trying to copy CNBC with the new format. I noticed more chit chatting going on with the anchors.

Yep. Don't watch CNBC, but I know what you mean. Don't forget, there won't be one extra person watching Bloomie because of Fox. Only less. sjo it is sort of understandable.

I think Fox will be just as annoying as CNBC. Just new "personalities." I can't stand Stuart Varney, or that Texas broad, Dagin McDowell, or Brenda Buckner....... It is just annoyihng, and of no value.

Quote from Pa(b)st Prime:

You have no idea how inflated media salaries have become.

The typical Chicago anchorman salary is 1mil and there's a woman here named Diane Burns who makes 2mil a year.

The friend of a friend is a local weatherman. He clocks in at 375....

Why are the salaries that high? Can't they find replacements for like 1/10th the cost?

It's not like reading an autocue is that hard.
