Anchors on cable news networks make an awful lot of money. CNNs Anderson Cooper makes a reported $12 million each year. MSNBCs Rachel Maddow also does quite well, pulling in $7 million a year.
But no anchor comes anywhere close to ratings king Sean Hannity. According to a 2020 piece from The Street, Fox News pays its top anchor an astounding $40 million each year.
Still, the Fox News anchor wants his fans to know that life isnt all that rosy. During his Friday show, Hannity told his audience:
You know, because, what you do is youre learning from stars, Hollywood people, famous people, athletes about success and I dont know anybody that ever walks this earth that has it easy. You know, you say, Oh, rich people have it easy. Theres nobody that I know that gets through this life without pain, without difficulty, without striving, without suffering, without things being hard. I dont care what it is, but for whatever it is, we all go through that.

(14,854 posts)7. She and Mitt know what it's like to be broke, she has told us.
Why, they actually had to sell some stock his father gave him to pay for school!
They were not easy year. Neither one of us had a job, because Mitt had enough of an investment from stock that we could sell off a little at a time. The stock came from Mitts father. When he took over American Motors, the stock was worth nothing. But he invested Mitts birthday money year to year it wasnt much, a few thousand, but he put it into American Motors because he believed in himself. Five years later, stock that had been $6 a share was $96 and Mitt cashed it so we could live and pay for education.

my first thought was "she isn't wearing a shift and those stays are completely wrong!". That's the kind of nerd I am.
Oh, and Hannity is an utter and complete asshole who has obviously never had to eat ramen to get to the next paycheck.

Me, I had to look it up and I would not have caught it even after reading about it.

How about they donate some of that money? That would probably go along ways to ease his pain.
