One earns the most, but they all earn more than you

You may think Sumner Redstone and Rupert Murdoch are the sexiest media executives out there, but they aren't the highest paid. Nah, that superlative goes to Comcast's chief Brian Roberts, whose annual earnings chime in at $33.5 million.

Among those trailing (not so far) behind him:

• Cox Communications CEO James Robbins: $29.4m
• Viacom CEO Sumner Redstone: $28.3m
• News Corp. CEO Rupert Murdoch: $23.6m
• Disney CEO Robert Iger: $11.9m

By the absence of Jason Binn, it's clear AdAge doesn't track the earnings of Niche Media.
