news correspondent
Broadcasts from events
A news correspondent is a journalist who reports from a particular location or covers a specific subject area for a news organization.
Correspondents are typically stationed in distant places—foreign countries, war zones, or major cities—and file reports back to their home outlet: Our correspondent in Beijing has the latest.
The term distinguishes them from anchors who remain in the studio.
