anchorperson
Studio news presenter
An anchorperson is the main presenter of a television or radio news broadcast, responsible for introducing stories, interviewing guests, and guiding viewers through the program.
The term emerged as a gender-neutral alternative to anchorman or anchorwoman.
The anchor metaphor suggests stability and centrality—the anchorperson holds the broadcast together while other reporters come and go with their segments.
She's been the anchorperson for the evening news for over a decade.
