Entertainment anchors make a range of salaries, based on prior experience and where they are taking the job. A starting salary for an entertainment anchor is between 30,000-45,000 depending on the size of the television market. Promotions over the years are possible. The candidate should discuss their preferred range and be open to negotiations.
