MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow has reportedly agreed to take a “far lesser amount” than her current $30 million a year as worries loom among MSNBC staff after parent company Comcast revealed its plan to spin off several NBCUniversal channels — including the network — into a new company.
Maddow, who has been with MSNBC since 2008, renegotiated her deal with the network and is set to make $25 million annually for the next five years, a $5 million per year pay cut, The Ankler reported Thursday.

Winning, flame away.
It appears that shortly the pay cut will be total.
She’s gone as soon as the sale is finalized.
It’s gonna be rough for poor Rachel. No longer getting $30 million a year for doing one show a week. O the humanity!
Us Elon really buying MSNBC? ☺
$30 million down to 25. You call that massive? Who’s gonna offer more than 10? Anything less than 25 would be insulting in that world. She’s not worth it.
Can’t imagine what she will do when Elon buys it.
She is gonna need to pay the new owner $25 million a year to stay on the air.
25 M for a once a week show no one watches. Words fail
So Rachel is getting a haircut?
i think she’s saved a little, making 30 million a year.
I was astounded to read that amount.
i dont understand why on earth someone would pay her so much.
She’ll still get 25 million a year.
i think she’ll survive.
and if she is let go, some other insane network will pick her up for a “cheap” 10 million
and these re the people who whine incessantly about income inequality
And if Elon buys MSNBC as has been mentioned, he’s known to take some major cost-cutting actions. She could be out on the street selling pencils or washing windshields at stop lights. Poor thing.
She’s going from $30 million a year to $25 million a year - for someone who has no audience, that’s not much of a pay cut.
oh my, how will she live? just 25 million, OMG how terrible for her/he/it.
Elon takes over I will laugh big time
I fear she’s only seen the beginning of her earnings freefall.

Maybe she can learn to code. 😂
She better take it. Before Musk buys the place. I doubt he pays his janitors 25 mil a year.
$15,000 an hour to be a professional liar...
