Rich Lieberman has posted the his estimation of the top 20 media salaries in the Bay Area.

One interesting note at the top: KGO host Ronn Owens makes more than twice as much as his boss, Michael Luckoff.

Update: Lieberman adds that paired groupings such as The Bone's Lamont and Tonelli (the morning team on 107.7, "The Bone") were not included, nor were those who make much of their money through syndication. Similarly, play-by-play sports broadcasters such as Jon Miller and Greg Papa were intentionally omitted from the list.
