Explanation
On Wikipedia the primary term used is "News presenter", but various others redirect there. Randall has used the phrasing "news anchor" directly in 1086: Eyelash Wish Log, "news caster" in 727: Trade Expert and just "reporters" in 1368: One Of The. Another version of a news report could be with a reporter, reporting from the scene. Although that has been seen in some of these comics below, it is always with a news anchor talking to the reporter from the studio, otherwise it would not belong in this category.
Cueball is, with the newest comic, now the most used character, with 10 comics, for presenting news reports. But given that he is the most used character in general it should be noted that the much rarer used Blondie, with 9 comics, seems to be the go to character for Randall when needing a news anchor.
