Radio’s biggest moneymaker
Who makes the most money per year in radio? Is it … A.) Ryan Seacrest, B.) Glenn Beck, C.) Sean Hannity or D.) Howard Stern?
The answer: D.) Howard Stern, with an estimated salary of $90 million annually.
I’ll never forget when he called me a “slut” on his show years ago. Why? I said the two competing satellite services, Sirius and XM, shouldn’t be allowed to merge. Howie would’ve lost a ton of money if that happened. Let me tell you, his fans were nasty to me afterward, leaving me comments like, “I wish you a slow death from cancer.” I published them all on my website, along with the senders’ names and email addresses. That crap stopped right then. Nope, Stern never apologized.
