Alex Jones tops annual list of highest-paid journalists

In 2022 it looked like the journalist’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Wednesday (December 25) that Jones is the highest-paid journalist in the world, pulling in an astonishing $46 million between November 2023 and November 2024, a nearly $20 million lead over his closest competition.

People With Money’s factors

In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.

The American journalist-author-director has an estimated net worth of $145 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Jones Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “Dallas Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderjones - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Alex) and a fashion line called “Alex Jones Seduction”.

The ranking is significant for many Alex fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
