WOLF BLITZER – $5 MILLION
CNN’s leading political news anchor, Wolf Blitzer, needs no introduction. The German-American journalist has been a reporter for CNN since the 90s. But way before he gained traction with the TV network, he started his career in the 70s working for the Reuters Agency in Tel Aviv. Blitzer soon caught the attention of a local newspaper editor and progressed in his career.
To add another accomplishment in his resume, Blitzer has been hosting The Situation Room since 2005. He even tried his hand at acting and appeared in a few Hollywood movies! With a $5-million annual salary, we can assume that he is happy with his career.
