A Look into the Generous Salaries of Australia’s Top TV Hosts
Michael Usher – $110K per Year
Presenting “Seven News” and “The Latest: Seven News” at Seven Network sounds like a dream job to any aspiring Australian news broadcaster. And in all truth, it is! The highly recognizable Michael Usher makes a reported $110K per year for hosting the news, but it’s not like he got the job handed on a silver platter.
Having worked steadily as a journalist since 1990, Usher needed to work hard to climb to the top. He appeared on regional TV networks in Bunbury and Kalgoorlie before moving on to Nine Network. Meanwhile, in the early ’00s, he was the on-site reporter during 9/11 and the Iraq War.
