What top public media executives are earning

ShareTweet EmailPrint

Current’s first survey of executive compensation in public media spans radio and TV stations in the top 25 broadcast markets, plus leaders of national networks and organizations. Like women in the overall workforce, women in top public media management jobs are making less than their male counterparts and are under-represented. Meanwhile, we found some disagreement within the system about whether CPB actually compels all chief executives to make their salaries public. (Money photo: Tracy O, via Flickr/Creative Commons)
