@andrewburns6851Thanks for the breakdown no doubt.👍
@Terry21120The more things change, the more they stay the same. SMH
@HOPE4-g5l800k per year for Russini is nuts. I only vaguely knew the name.
@BH-fd4plDamn age hasn't been friendly to you
@mikeybombers2529I think I was making 400k something like that😂 subtle flex
@ghostface2814Thanks for explaining. I knew i shouldve gotten into broadcasting
@verlinden80Your blonde hair offends me as a bald man
@justinsmith275Thats not shocking
@jemmysmith8661Where was Malika Andrews and her 2 cents on this story? 🤔
@dramonsmith5520Considering that many journalists are the face of any publication or TV network, you should be paid a lot of money to be employed. They add credibility or more money to the media entity that hires them.
@officiatingborntraining4173OMG!!! No makeup Jamele is...😍🥰🤩
@elmayimbe_the_amateur_mechanicDianna was a fool to throw away her career on a married man being married herself!!! 😂😂😂
@larryconnerjr1835800k just to mess it up by cheating on your husband. Diabolical
@paulekezie465I’m sorry you guys have to explain this
@ChristopherDaniels-bf8niAppreciated....I use Michael Wilbon as a measuring stick....Wilbon makes 6M per. Puts things in perspective
@trentjaye4756Let's not mention that under the table quid pro DT coulda been in on..
@adamking8500She's pro black but wears blonde wigs. Hmmmmm?
@ObviouslyOblivliousThank you for sharing. Very insightful.
@geraldluke5264Barstool pays the dorks that run around their office and provide little to no value from a commentary POV hundreds of thousands per year.
But people are taken aback at Diana Russini making 800k or you making that life changing money for the biggest sports media company in the world?
Thank you for sharing
@albertreese-x1qMan I wish I could’ve had these numbers as a reference in HS lol I tried telling my African dad I wanted to be a sports analyst/journalist and he made it seem like it was peanuts. This transparency was so refreshing and so important
@Hackaveli🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🌹🌹🌹
@deucedoggfa96Her voice is awful.
@jeffreyd7796Diana hadn’t broken, or rather, has been given the amount of news from agents, GMs and even owners like Schefty and Rap, and why she wasn’t getting their salary.
She left ESPN because she wasn’t “breaking news” on their level like that.
This is why Josina Anderson should always be appreciated since she has never had to do what Russini has done to get news/break stories.
Damn that wig is terrible
@DigitalsidequestsAlmost like she was paid for something else
@DAV3RAG3Was this necessary? Just seems like she's trying to flex about her eventual salary
@JerryGriggs-ov9zfYou talk all that talk and have blonde hair🤦♂️😂
@mannyneva176012:19 “no one” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 this dude is so out of touch it’s crazy. People actually listen to him for news & opinion. It’s easy to see why this country is so stupid, uneducated, ignorant, & ended up with a moron like Trump. Just an uneducated electorate who listens to uneducated takes. What could go wrong 😑
@jaysteve4442We don't care
@fredwhitjrthis women is miserable
@TWNBIZZNEZZLove the transparency and insight mam! 👌🏾💯😉
@perryjenkinsjr.7928I don’t see why it’s anybody’s business what she gets paid and if it’s fair or not. She along with her employer are private companies, not public servants or government.
@_HMCB_So $760k isn’t life-changing? Everyone you specifically mentioned here, including yourself, were/are grossly overpaid for what you provide to consumers.
@dh3279And guess what......WE DON'T CARE😂😂😂😂😂.
@ericwilliams460Why is jemele hill popping up on my algo? 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
@chrismac6446Thank you 🙏🏿
@roslyn3021Crypt Keeper is back
@jammamon335She was making 180k and reached 800k before she hit Sports Center.....what 800k is life changing money.
@terrencehollowell9566You all are overpaid. $75,000.00 annually max, is what you are worth.
@Sunny-z7q1sLiterally the biggest disaster in the history of Sportscenter.
@Paleo2GoESPN realized you weren’t worth the paper your checks were printed on.
@Paleo2GoMegyn Kelly made this woman go blonde 😂
@Quan345Wat she made wasn't Lead story 4 me. It was wat she was doin with her platform! So UNETHICAL
@Highoffthaglass1979❤
@PaulineNewman-u9oWhy she got blonde hair tho😂😂😂🤷🏾♂️
@Doggface700Thanks for explaining that you're going to an airport to leave your current location
@MitchTheComicok so Jemele is jealous? i'm not sure why it matters how much Russini was making. she ain't making $800k no more 😂😂😂
