A career in front of the camera can be challenging and rewarding at the same time. A television host must be sharp-witted with extraordinary communication skills. The ability to express intelligent thoughts, make humorous quips and pose thought-provoking questions to guests is a must. The yearly salary of a television host varies, based on the size of the network or station, popularity of the show's hosts and overall production budget. 3, record 3, English, - television%20host
