Cooper’s $42 Million SiriusXM Deal Surpasses Top Network Television Host Earnings
With her recent $42 million per year deal with SiriusXM, Alex Cooper has now become one of the highest-earning media personalities, surpassing even the likes of top network television hosts. According to Outkick, the only individuals who earn more than Cooper are shock jock Howard Stern and podcasting giant Joe Rogan.
Howard Stern, who has been a staple at SiriusXM since 2006, reportedly rakes in $80 million per year, making him one of the highest-paid figures in radio history. Stern’s current five-year deal is set to expire next year, leaving fans speculating about his future with the platform.
Despite Stern’s longstanding presence at SiriusXM, Cooper’s recent success and massive deal have raised questions about the platform’s direction. Cooper’s ability to secure high-profile interviews, such as her recent scoop with Kamala Harris, before Stern and her appeal to a younger audience could signal a shift in the platform’s strategy.
As Cooper continues to make waves in the media industry, her lucrative deal with SiriusXM solidifies her status as a rising star in the entertainment world. With her earnings now surpassing those of top network television hosts, Cooper’s influence and impact are set to grow even further in the years to come.
