[the_ad id=”40731″]

Erin Andrews – $2 million – ABC, Dancing with the Stars

[the_ad id=”40731″]

Erin Andrews is a fresh face on TV but that applies only to her magnificent looks and not her portfolio! Andrews has been the contributor in many huge TV productions since the 2000s. She is also an excellent reporter when it comes to sports and this is actually how her career got kickstarted. Erin has been sportscasting for many major events – even the Super Bowl! – and she also used to be on ESPN’s College GameDay. While we enjoy her on Dancing with the Stars, Erin loves to keep herself busy as a bee, thus, she is also reporting for Fox NFL. Erin talked in March 2018 about her fight against cervical cancer.

[the_ad id=”40731″]

Ginger Zee had her fair share of experience in various media outlets before entering ABC’s Good Morning America team in 2011 as their weekend meteorologist. However, judging by how passionate she is at what she does, Ginger now holds the title of Chief Meteorologist for Good Morning America and for good reason. Of course, this means a huge upgrade for her savings account, no doubt! Earlier in November 2018, Ginger surprised a huge Disney fan when she invited her to travel the world in a week in order to visit all Disney-themed parks!

Robin Meade – $4.5 Million – HLN, Morning Express with Robin Meade

[the_ad id=”40731″]

Tamron Hall – $5 million – Investigation Discovery, Deadline: Crime

[the_ad id=”40731″]

But before making it in media, she worked as an actress on two seasons of Little House on the Prairie and in movies such as Scavenger Hunt and Man, Woman, and Child.

[the_ad id=”40731″]

Married to Wray Thorn since 1997, Melissa’s a mother of 3, and so we are astonished that she is able to balance her career and still find time for her family! She appears regularly on the news commentary show Outnumbered and she’s the host of Happening Now‘s newscast section.

Gayle King – $20 million – CBS, CBS This Morning

[the_ad id=”40731″]

Gayle King is not your average TV anchor and if you think about it, she would not be making this amount of money had she been one! Apart from being one of the faces of the CBS morning news show, she is also a key factor behind Oprah Winfrey’s magazine, O. The two legends of American TV met in 1976 and they have been great friends ever since.

Jane Pauley – $40 million – CBS, CBS Sunday Morning

Forty years after her first appearance on Today, she began hosting CBS Sunday Morning. Apart from her TV appearances, though, Jane Pauley was on the stage of the 2018 Writers Guild Awards to present an award!

Diane Sawyer – $80 Million – ABC, ABC World News

[the_ad id=”40731″]

Maria Shriver is another female anchor who has been awarded an Emmy for her contribution in journalism, but she is also known for being a former First Lady of California as she used to be married to Arnold Schwarzenegger (she filed for divorce in 2011). With the wildfire in California raging, Shriver, along with Chris Pratt, donated $10K to victims of the immense catastrophe.

[the_ad id=”40731″]

She is an author, journalist, and one of the most familiar faces on TV, even though she decided to pursue her retirement plans in 2015. Barbara Walters has been on our screens for years hosting a variety of shows, such as Today, 20/20, The View and more. Walter saw the breakthrough of her career in the ‘70s when she got the position of co-host for The Today Show. At the time, she was the first woman to achieve this title and the extra airtime! The last rumors about Barbara, though, were rather disturbing, as it seems that she is planning her own… funeral! Quite an odd plan for retirement, Barbara!

Chelsea Handler – $40 Million – Netflix, Chelsea

[the_ad id=”40731″]

Chelsea might be over as Chelsea Handler wanted to focus on her becoming an activist – or other juicy details that we do not really know. But Handler isn’t sitting on her couch doing nothing. She is actually raising controversy after claims that she was seen baiting Eagles fans with tricky questions about racial issues after a match in Philadelphia! Chelsea is currently working on her new endeavor with Netflix; a comical series attacking “white privilege.” Being on the Forbes list of the most influential people and living in Bel Air definitely attests to Handler’s earnings, yet we do believe she deserves it all!

Cokie Roberts – Estimated $1 Million

Cokie Roberts will certainly be missed. The notable American journalist and author passed away on September 17, 2019, after losing a tough battle against metastatic breast cancer. She worked as a political analyst for NPR and ABC News and dwelled in politics during George W. Bush’s years, promoting civism and volunteerism.

[the_ad id=”40731″]

Cokie Roberts’ accolades include an Emmy Award and a Walter Cronkite Award for Excellence in Journalism, and she was once considered to be one of the 50 greatest women in broadcasting history! During her life, Cokie inspired many, including her daughter Rebecca. Like her mother, Rebecca’s a journalist, working mainly as an XM Radio host.

Kathie Lee Gifford – $2 Million

Kathie Lee Gifford is one of the best-known faces on American television, partly due to her co-hosting Live! with Regis and Kathie Lee for 15 years. Later, she spent over 1 decade working for NBC on The Today Show. But that just wasn’t enough for Kathie. In addition to her vast television portfolio, she’s released over 10 studio albums, as well as, several books!

[the_ad id=”40731″]

Naturally, when you keep this busy, working at the highest level of the entertainment industry for decades, money starts pouring in. As of 2019, Kathie Lee Gifford is currently worth a jaw-dropping $60 million, and we anticipate that amount growing higher as each year goes by.

Abby Huntsman – $78K

There are so many stunning and talented women working for ABC but we could never forget Abby Huntsman! Abby, a co-host of The View, obviously deserves a place on this list and reportedly receives an annual salary of $78K.

She’s married to the former professional basketball player and fellow sports anchor, Jalen Rose.

Joan Lunden – $1 Million

When Joan Lunden stopped hosting Good Morning America on ABC, the show lost almost 1 million viewers! That’s a testament to her influence on television and popularity amongst the people. Ever since she debuted as a WABC reporter on ABC News, she’s proven over and over to be too good to ever leave the spotlight.

[the_ad id=”40731″]

Currently employed as a special correspondent on NBC’s Today, Joan Lunden has amassed an astounding fortune of $25 million over the years. Besides working as a journalist and TV host, Lunden has also kept busy by releasing eight books and raising her three daughters.
