Pam Oliver ($1 000 000)
It’s not often that you find a female sportscaster with decades of experience, but Pam Oliver is one such star. Not quite finding a home at a particular network early on, she eventually landed a stable gig with ESPN back in the nineties. That’s not to say that she sat still after that happened. Her $1 000 000 paycheck is proof that it’s worth shopping around for deals as you progress through your broadcasting career.
Wendi Nix ($800 000)
With a comfy salary of $800 000, Wendi Nix is proof that sports anchors starting out on local networks have the ability to become big earners later on. Although Wendi bounced around between Fox and WPDE in her native South Carolina, today she headlines ‘NFL Live’ on ESPN. The fact that her coverage of various NFL games has loyal fans coming back for more is proof she’s well worth the good money she takes home.
