What's the difference between a host or anchor?--Levineps (talk) 03:25, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2009-01-28T03:25:00.000Z","author":"Levineps","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Levineps-2009-01-28T03:25:00.000Z-Host_or_anchor","replies":["c-Reigndog-2013-05-31T14:27:00.000Z-Levineps-2009-01-28T03:25:00.000Z"]}}-->

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]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-05-31T14:27:00.000Z","author":"Reigndog","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Reigndog-2013-05-31T14:27:00.000Z-Levineps-2009-01-28T03:25:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->
