Simon Cowell and Howard Stern apprently have more in common than just expressing how they truly feel about things.
According to Forbes, which just released its list of the highest-paid TV personalities, each of them pulled in the most money between June 2012 and June 2013.
In fact, Cowell and Stern tied for the top spot, both with estimated earnings of $95 million.
Not too far behind is another outspoken individual.
Conservative talk show host Glenn Beck, whose Internet program The Blaze has been a huge hit since it debuted in 2011, raked in an estimated $90 million to place third. Meanwhile, Oprah Winfrey, who has topped this list in the past, fell to fourth place this time around with an estimated $77 million in earnings.
And speaking of Oprah, the man who got his start thanks to the media mogul, Dr. Phil, rounds out the top five with an estimated $72 million.
For the full list, go to Forbes.com.
Rush is not a TV personality.
I wasn’t arguing that he was.
>> “What talent do they have beside being loud and obnoxious?” <<
.
Mostly, none.
What was it Dorothy Parker said? Something like, “You can tell what God thinks of money. Just look who He gives it to.”
I thought I was just pointing out why he would not be on the list; which I couldn’t find. If he is on it, I’m sure his income from all sources would easily top the list.
He is also a very self-made millionaire. He worked hard for it. He definitely doesn’t have the best morals, but I thought he was great on American Idol. He pays more taxes than most of us on here.
Let me guess, it’s gonna get a branch of the Baraq Hussein Obama Presidential Library and Choom Gang Museum?
Simon Cowell has always been a no class guy.
He constantly insulted excellent performers simply because he wanted something else to better fit his socially destructive agenda.
