Answer:
The answer to the question: the job function of a news commentator is most similar to that of an: editor.
Explanation:
News commentators, now known as anchors, or news presenters, are the journalists who are tasked with the responsibility of not just presenting the news, but they are also responsible for conducting specialized interviews and coordinating portions of a news presentation, or newscast, in conjunction with the producer. Another job that is part of the anchor, who were known as commentators before the appearance of T.V and of continuous news broadcasts, is to produce, write and edit the news that will be presented in their programs. This is precisely the job of an editor; this person is responsible for the control and supervision of the works given into his/her care and controls the editing, or revision, process, of a work to be presented.
