Search for "news anchor wig". Costume wigs are usually sold with generic names, even when it's totally obvious what movie or character they're ripping off.

Fantasy Costume Headquarters has one, but it's not on their web site. I was there last weekend. It was called "Cool Guy Wig" or "Seventies Dude Wig" or something like that. I'm sure if you called them and asked specifically for "Ron Burgundy in Anchorman" they'd find the one. Or maybe your local costume shop will have it.

Go to a wig shop, take a picture of Ron Burgundy with you. They'll take the closest thing they've got, plant you in a barber chair, and cut it for you to match.
