NEWS PRESENTER

(Redirected from Anchorman)

A 'news presenter' is, broadly speaking, a person that presents a news show on television, radio or the Internet. The term is not commonly used by people in the industry as they tend to use more descriptive, and sometimes country-specific, terms. Examples include "'newsreader'", "'newscaster'", and "'news anchor'".

Different roles


Newscaster

A 'newscaster' is a presenter of a news bulletin who is himself or herself a working journalist and news gatherer, and a participant in compiling the script to be delivered in a news bulletin.
The American use of the term is presumed to have been coined in the 1980s to distinguish active journalists from newsreaders, the previous type of news presenter.
However in the UK, ITN's presenters are referred to as newscasters (and have been since the 1950s), whilst those working at the BBC are called newsreaders.
News anchor

A 'news anchor' is a television personality who presents material prepared for a news program and at times must improvise commentary for live presentation. The term is primarily used in the United States and Canada. Many news anchors are also involved in writing and/or editing the news for their programs. Sometimes news anchors interview guests and moderate panels or discussions. Some provide commentary for the audience during parades and other events.
The term ''anchor'' (sometimes 'anchorperson', 'anchorman', or 'anchorwoman') was coined by CBS News producer Don Hewitt. CBS cites its first usage as being on July 7, 1952 to describe Walter Cronkite's role at the Democratic and Republican National Conventions. According to Hewitt, the term was in reference to the "anchor leg" of a relay race.
