Reporting


Molly is a backpack journalist, so she can broadcast a story anywhere, anytime, by herself. Molly combines reporting and social media by connecting with viewers through Facebook and Tweeting while in the field. Because Molly’s stories hit the web before they reach air, viewers are along for the story details every step of the way. Even when she is without a backpack or camera, Molly has her iPhone ready to snap a picture or get video.
