As a news anchor, you will work closely with reporters and other journalists to gather facts, broadcast news reports, interview guests, and cover breaking stories when necessary. You will cover local, state, national, and international events, and also stay well-informed on breaking news developments. Anchoring plays a significant role in the decision-making process of consumers. When faced with choices, individuals often use the anchor as a starting point to assess the value or price of a product or service. The anchor sets the context and frames the subsequent comparisons. News Anchors narrate or write news stories, reviews, or commentary for print, broadcast, or other communications media such as newspapers, magazines, radio, or television.
