And CNN chief hall monitor — and resident Fox News expert — Brian Stelter is on the case:

Wonder how much Ryan will make? Fox board members have previously banked about $300,000 a year in cash and equity https://t.co/lwgUuIrjtJ — Brian Stelter (@brianstelter) March 19, 2019

We wonder something, too. Namely, why is it any of Brian Stelter’s business what Paul Ryan will be paid?

No I don't wonder this is dumb. — Scotty B ? (@ScottishDuke) March 19, 2019

Seriously. He’s not in government anymore. — Andrea Ruth (@AndreaNRuth) March 19, 2019

Why do you care? What business is it of yours? He's a private citizen. — Cheryl B (@Cheryl707) March 19, 2019

Why is that any of your business? — Ashby (@Ashby704) March 19, 2019

What’s your point? It’s none of your business or anyone else’s how much money he makes. — Naly (@nalywid) March 19, 2019

If Brian’s such a staunch advocate for transparency with regard to salary, why doesn’t he put his money where his mouth is?

Why are you ‘ wondering ‘about his salary? He served his country for years. He is hardly a Trump acolyte. He’s entitled to make a living. How much do you make, @brianstelter ???? — Sheila Brown (@Sheilabgood) March 19, 2019

Your obsession with Fox borders on creepy. Who cares how much he will make? How much do u make? — SusanMAdams (@SusanMAdams) March 19, 2019

How much are you drawing in Brian? And what, exactly, is the going rate for a smarmy little hall monitor elsewhere? — Abe Froman™ (@WerIstDeinPa) March 19, 2019

We’re not sure, but it’s probably a heck of a lot more than most Americans make.
