I am grateful that as a reporter and as an anchor, people have allowed me to share their stories.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If someone says you're a reporter and doesn't want you to anchor then you wonder why you worked so hard at it.
I was so thrilled being a reporter, because it gave you the kind of access to people that you wouldn't ever get to meet.
I used to have trust with reporters. Give them scoops. Those were the old days. It's very strange, when you give a story and it doesn't come out the right way.
I thank God I was a reporter before I became a writer.
Most reporters who come to me get their stories directly from press releases. Very few do what one would consider to be their professional duty.
I have nothing to do with the selection of stories. I'm the reporter.
It's astonishing what you learn and feel and see along the way. That's why a reporter's job, as you know, is such a joy.
I've always thought of myself as a reporter.
Some people continue to pretend that anchor people are reporters.
You can't expect that because you find a story and report it out that your newspaper and broadcasting company is going to want to publish and broadcast it - and you're going to be a hero.
