Who do you know? That's the question you want to ask. Get into the media industry, know the right people, then you're set. How does an everyday person get into the field? Well, for the majority of us who aren't Hollywood actors and actresses; education is the viable option. Even if you work as a writer or an intern; you show your face to people, and make yourself unforgettable. (Conan O'Brien, Tina Fey, and Spike Ferguson all started out as writers) Come time for producers to look for a new reporter, or an anchor to fill a certain position, you will be a face they recognize. Now obviously they are not going to hire you solely on the basis that they've seen your face here and there, but as you build credit you may eventually pursue your dream career. This isn't an easy industry to get into. Nowadays, you're either famous before you get a talk show, or you know Oprah. (Rachel Ray, Dr. Phil, and very shortly Dr. Oz!) Or, you leave it up to destiny. Trust that if this position is written in the books for you, then you will get it someday. Here's a list of our most famous talk show hosts, and what SOME of their occupations were prior to hosting: (Not double-sourced) Oprah Winfrey: Evening News Anchor, demoted to morning show anchor. Dr. Phil: Psychologist, later co-founder of a trial consulting firm. Ellen: Comedian/Actress Rachel Ray: Chef/ Taught cooking classes Bonnie Hunt: Actress Tyra: Super Model Joy Behar: Teacher. Secretary Elizabeth Hasselbeck: Part of design team for Puma shoes Barbara Walters: Journalist Whoopi: Actress Conan O'Brien: Writer for The Simpsons and SNL Leno: Comedian Letterman: Comedian Spike Ferguson: Writer for Seinfeld

∙ 14y agoStep 1: Take part in a Reality Show as a contestant (VH1 or MTV are good choices)
Step 2: Be a huge prick
Step 3: Wait... for the producers to offer you your own spin-off reality show
Note: For the best results, try a reality show based on achieving the love of some B-List celebrity
