Report: Radio's Highest Paid Hosts Are...

While the radio industry has been striving to embrace the modern age with new apps and video streaming, today’s highest paid radio stars — all middle-aged white men — highlight how little the industry has actually changed over the years, according to Forbes.

For their part, each of these radio hosts has dabbled in other mediums — including establishing their own clothing lines, penning books and hosting TV shows — but the crux of their income comes from good old fashioned radio-hosting gigs.

Howard Stern, known for his often-times off color antics, leads the pack again after having successfully renegotiated a new five-year deal with Sirius XM Radio. Conservative radio star Rush Limbaugh, who also announced earlier this month that he’s extending his partnership with iHeartMedia , trails close behind with estimated earnings of $79 million.

All together this group of radio personalities earned nearly $280 million. The list measures estimated pretax income from June 1, 2015 to June 1, 2016 before deducting management and legal fees; figures are based on data from Nielsen, Box Office Mojo, Pollstar and IMDB, and interviews with agents, analysts and industry observers.
