      After doing extensive research, I found that the salaries of talk show hosts vary greatly depending upon experience, age, and ultimately, the talk show host’s ability to connect with the audience.  For example, according to http://www.blinkbits.com/wikifeeds/Jay_Leno, Jay Leno’s average annual salary is 32 millions dollars.  Another well known talk show host, David Letterman makes approximately 40 millions dollars a year says http://www.answers.com/topic/david-letterman.   It is hard to distinguish annual salaries on a year to year basis because talk show hosts may also switch stations, in which case salaries will also greatly vary.
