Matt Lauer may be out at the Today show, but his salary*still looms large. Despite being named his permanent replacement, Hoda Kotb won't match her predecessor's record-setting paystubs. Sources tell Page Six Kotb will make seven million dollars a year - around 18 million less than Lauer. A show insider says Hoda isn't complaining. She landed the big job she always dreamed of, and Matt's salary reflected the 25 years he'd been at the show.
There's one country where the Today show's pay gap may be considered illegal. Iceland became the first country to enact a law making it illegal to pay men more than women. The law went info effect on January 1, and requires businesses to obtain an official certification on the new policies. One key reason the law passed is that almost half of Iceland's members of parliament are women. It's all part of the island nation's plan to erase the pay gap by 2022.
