Before Harris Faulkner was breaking barriers as the only African American woman to host a daily news show, she got her start as a news delivery – writing for the LA Weekly. Faulkner is currently hosting as a news anchor on the Fox Report. Harris is scoring a yearly salary of $400,000.
She takes her role as an African-American news anchor very seriously, admitting that she feels a tremendous amount of responsibility.
Catt Sadler - $3 million
Back in 2017, Catt Sadler gave one of the most revealing exposés as an E! News anchor in entertainment news - her annual salary. She worked for twelve years with the network before she signed off the air once she found out that she was only making half of what her co-host was making.
In Sadler's words, she was making $600,000 a year, while her co-host, Jason Kennedy, was making almost double. There's no bad blood between the two, but we understand why she left, especially was they were similarly positioned within the network.
Samantha Steele Ponder - $4.9 million
Samantha Steele Ponder took Erin Andrews' old anchor job on Sunday NFL Countdown, where she presently calls games from the sidelines. She rapidly rose in the sportscaster ranks, and she gets a surprising salary for someone so young, making a sweet $4.9 million.
Steel Ponder married Vikings quarterback Christian Ponder back in 2012, and she's pregnant with their third son.
Susan Li - $3 million
Even before landing her job as a journalist on the Fox Business Network, Susan Li came a long way. She was born in China and grew up in Toronto; Li has been a business news reporter all over the world with CBC, CNBC Asia, and CNBC Europe. Li left CNBC in August 2017, where it's estimated that she was making $650,995 a year.
As an international anchor, she brings a lot to the table; not only is she fluent in the stock market jargon, but she can also speak Mandarin and Cantonese fluently.
Rachel Nichols - $10 million
Rachel Nichols is as much a sports journalist she is a news anchor, Rachel has made a name for herself as one of the best in her field, which is why she has amassed a net worth of $10 million!
The reason for her on-screen popularity is the confidence she instills in her viewers when they watch her; we can just tell that she knows what she's talking about.
