They all seemed to agree that, in the words of the sole female representative, females presented were "always" adherent of a set standard for age and beauty, appearing to be "the news anchor's other wife."

Well, you weren't listening very well then. After she said that, the guy asked eveyone, "who's the most popular newscaster on TV?" When they answered Bill O'Reilly, he said that Bill O'Reilly is a balding, middle-aged man. The public isn't the determinant of how women are supposed to look on TV. Personally, I don't really care, and I'm sure a lot of other people don't either. They decide to look their best on their own, not because of some intense media pressure that every newswomen is hot (you must not watch the news if you think this).
Not all of them are good looking. Hell, look at the lady on the show you watched. She was nearying her 60s. But when normal, middle-aged women are viewed by millions of people everyday, it's no surprise that they try to look their best.
