It's a lot of money, but consider what people with the same position in other industries make.

So 150k a year is a bad income for visiting some Men-beauty-peagants (getting paid for flights and hotel I guess), take a few photos of men in thongs on stage and write an article about the outcome?

lmao some people are unworldly.

In Obama's America, it is sporting to oil up, put on a thong and smack each other with ponytails.

In Bush's America, it was sporting to blow up countries that hadn't attacked us.

Clinton sucked... but sportfucking interns was way less costly.

Lets try this again.

1. It's not Obama's America, he can fuck himself back to Kenya where he came from.


2. Again, spin doctor. It was a vote by both sides to go in.

See, this is why we laugh at the left because you keep bringing shit up that you know isn't true but I guess it's the Alinsky way, right?

Not as much as what Dave Palumbo was making.  Ron Harris cashes in as well pretty good.

Around $90,000 - 95000, give or take a few thousand in NY or California. That's without seeing any deductions, etc....

For a niche publication, being just an editor, it was solid money -

Is probably pretty good $$ in FL.

Ron Harris said on MD a while back that he couldn't believe how much work Romano DIDN'T do and that Romano never met deadlines on time. It became pretty evident during Romanos slow demise, the bloke was scum and seemed dodgy as fuck.

He's right, he wrote pretty much every article in the mag either under his name or some made up Dirk Diggler name.

If the mag made decent money he was worth it.

Spec Ed once said Blechman wanted to buy some video's he made of pro's at an expo but he knew he never paid so he kept uploading them onto youtube. Palumbo was ringing him saying stop it we'll buy them for MD and he said then pay me but it never came through.
