Dallas, Texas - News Anchor

     The time is 10:20 and we are talking to a news anchor at Fox 4 Good Day. She claims that her favorite interviews are the ones that are small and personal because those are the ones that make a difference. She is informing us on the amount of people it takes to do everything at the news station, even just to write a script. She is also showing us the green screen and telling us that we should NEVER wear green on set. 
     The cameras at their station are little robots. She did a story on one of our former classmates a few years ago and heard that he loved  the world tour. Then, we reached out to her and she agreed to do this with us and film some of us. She has been a news anchor in all sorts of places like Albuquerque.  They use a prompter so they don't have to memorize all of her lines. It is controlled by a pedal with which the anchors can push it and it moves at that speed, like it would whilst driving a car. 
     A couple hundred people work in her station alone, including sales. She claims the hardest part of being a news anchor is the sleep because there is a lack of sleep.  This is because there are always stories in the making and she has to be there to cover quite a few of them. Thank you Lauren Przybyl,
