newswoman

She covers stories

A newswoman is a female journalist who reports news, especially on television or radio.

The term parallels newsman but is less common than the gender-neutral reporter or journalist.

The newswoman covered the story from the scene.

Some style guides recommend avoiding gendered job titles when the person's sex is irrelevant.
