If we're talking the anchor "A" team - probably somewhere in the range of $250,000 to $500,000 a year. "B" team? Probably $125,000 to $200,000 a year.
I suspect Devin Scillian and Huel Perkins are the highest paid news anchors in the market. I bet Scillian makes $750,000 a year at least.
Reporter salaries probably range from $50,000 to $75,000 for those who are relatively young. I'm sure seasoned pros such as Rod Meloni of WDIV earn six figures easily.
I am not even going to begin to guess what the folks behind the scenes make.

Re: Average salaries
Would surprise me if they pay that much money to the least watched local newscaster in that time slot.lovinlife101 wrote: ↑Wed Mar 11, 2020 9:10 amI wouldn’t be surprised if Huel is near or over the cool million mark.

Re: Average salaries
There is NO WAY anyone is making 750k anymore in Detroit. 250-500? Yeah, maybe 400, but that's about it.MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Tue Mar 10, 2020 9:13 pmIf we're talking the anchor "A" team - probably somewhere in the range of $250,000 to $500,000 a year. "B" team? Probably $125,000 to $200,000 a year.

Re: Average salaries
Absolutely no way anyone makes more than 300k in Detroit these days. You barely make that nationally.
New Reporters likely make 40-50k starting.
The days of big paychecks and outrageous contract demands are gone.
