Host or anchor

What's the difference between a host or anchor?-- Levineps ( talk) 03:25, 28 January 2009 (UTC) reply

As far as I can tell, it's the nature of the program. Hosts have analysis shows where they offer mainly opinion and/or commentary of news stories, where as anchors are more restricted to straight reporting of so-called "hard news". Of course the line can get pretty fine at times and opinion can bleed over onto the shows of anchors. Reigndog ( talk) 14:27, 31 May 2013 (UTC) reply
