'help' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.

'salmon before tea is announced' is the wordplay.
'salmon' becomes 'cohos' (I've seen this before**).
'before' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'is announced' shows a homophone (sound like).
'tea' is a homophone of 't'.
'cohos'+'t'='CO-HOST'

'to present' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for co-host that I've seen before include "Joint party giver" , "Presenter" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
