Tucker Carlson tops annual list of highest-paid television hosts
In 2022 it looked like the television host’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Thursday (November 21) that Carlson is the highest-paid television host in the world, pulling in an astonishing $96 million between October 2023 and October 2024, a nearly $60 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 television host-journalist has an estimated net worth of $275 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 Carlson Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “San Francisco Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondercarlson - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Tucker) and a fashion line called “Tucker Carlson Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Tucker fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
