BILL O’REILLY – $85 MILLION

Before all the fame and wealth, his early TV news career was anchoring and reporting positions in Scranton, Pennsylvania at WNEP-TV. Former American TV host, author, and journalist William James O’Reilly Jr is well known for his work as the host of the O’Reilly Factor on Fox News on different forms from 1996 to 2017. He is of Irish descent but also has a small degree of English ancestry.

During the top of his career, O’Reilly received a salary of $25 million each year, and he is now worth $85 million. But his career took a huge blow after a revelation was made on a 2017 New York Times investigation. After his employment was terminated on Fox News in April 2017, O’Reilly launched No Spin News on April 24, 2017, and began digitally streaming versions of No Spin News videos. In July 2020, his show finally started to air on Newsmax TV, together with his periodical appearances as a guest in different programs.
