Top Magazine Editors Doing More, Getting Paid More (Especially The Men)

FOLIO:s 2011 salary survey of magazine editors at all levels found that almost everyone’s doing more with less, and some are actually reaping financial benefits.

Most editors-in-chief (or at least the average editor-in-chief) got a pay raise in 2011, FOLIO says, except in the West, where the average EIC’s salary dropped by $11,000 (!) to $72,400.

The average male EIC nationwide earned $99,300, up from 2010’s $96,900; the average female EIC earned $77,600, up from 2010’s $74,200.

Editorial directors and editors in chief in New York got an average of a $10,000 raise.
