Chris Wallace – $7 Million
Christopher Wallace is a Harvard graduate who The Boston Globe, his first media boss, described as an aggressive and ambitious reporter. He worked as a White House Correspondent, “Meet the Press” host, and NBC Primetime Thursday anchor. Wallace has interviewed lists of high-profile politicians, including Barack Obama and Vladimir Putin.
In 2016, he set the record as the first Fox News Journalist to moderate a presidential debate, and at that time, it was Hillary Clinton facing off with Donald Trump. Subsequently, he moderated the 2020 presidential debate. A 2018 poll ranked him as one of the most trusted news anchors, and it explains why various networks keep him on board, which in turn earn him $7M annually.
