Oh my for a 12 year old boy(SNL quote) is getting a pay cut.

Winning, flame away.

[TonyinLA]

It appears that shortly the pay cut will be total.

[ChuckHam]

She’s gone as soon as the sale is finalized.

[MayflowerMadam]

It’s gonna be rough for poor Rachel. No longer getting $30 million a year for doing one show a week. O the humanity!

[shalom aleichem]

Us Elon really buying MSNBC? ☺

[DIRTYSECRET]

$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.

[KC Burke]

Can’t imagine what she will do when Elon buys it.

[cgbg]

She is gonna need to pay the new owner $25 million a year to stay on the air.

[iamgalt]

25 M for a once a week show no one watches. Words fail

[Tench_Coxe]

So Rachel is getting a haircut?

[dp0622]

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

[God luvs America]

and these re the people who whine incessantly about income inequality

[MayflowerMadam]

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.

[AnotherUnixGeek]

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.

[BigFreakinToad]

oh my, how will she live? just 25 million, OMG how terrible for her/he/it.

[databoss]

Elon takes over I will laugh big time

[JudyinCanada]

I fear she’s only seen the beginning of her earnings freefall.

Can’t imagine what she will do when Elon buys it.

Maybe she can learn to code. 😂

[Texas Eagle]

She better take it. Before Musk buys the place. I doubt he pays his janitors 25 mil a year.

[kiryandil]

$15,000 an hour to be a professional liar...
