CBS CEO Leslie Moonves' 2012 Pay: $62.2 million

CBS is home to "Two Broke Girls" and one rich chief executive.


Leslie Moonves, the CEO of CBS, had a 2012 compensation package valued at $62.2 million, according to the company's proxy statement filed Friday.

Although that makes Moonves the highest-compensated media chief executive, it is also a decline from 2011, when his pay package was worth almost $70 million, according to a story at latimes.com.

Moonves had a base salary of $3.5 million and received a bonus of $27 million. The rest of his compensation was in the form of stock awards and option awards.

Besides the CBS broadcast network, CBS holdings include TV and radio stations and the pay-TV channel Showtime.
