Beth Rigby – Unknown

Beth Rigby is an outlier. Unlike the other names on this list, her journalistic career has no ties to the BBC network. Instead, she’s best known as the political editor of Sky News, a role she took on in 2019 and continued in 2022. And while her salary is undisclosed, a position like hers pays well.

Rigby worked as a hedge fund and retail correspondent at the “Financial Times.” And she worked her way up the ladder until she became the deputy political editor. Afterward, she joined Sky News and, in 2021, served as the political editor on “Sky World News,” “Sky Midnight News,” and “The Queens’s Speech 2021.”
