television anchors
Nightly news presenters
Television anchors are the lead presenters who host news broadcasts, introducing stories, interviewing guests, and guiding viewers through programming.
The term borrows from nautical imagery—anchors provide stability and hold things in place, just as these figures provide continuity and credibility for their networks.
The evening anchors reported on the election results.
Distinguished from reporters who gather news in the field, anchors typically remain at the studio desk.
