radio reporter

On-air journalist

A radio reporter is a journalist who gathers and delivers news for broadcast on radio.

Unlike print journalists, radio reporters must write for the ear and often voice their own stories: The radio reporter filed a live update from the scene.

The role emphasizes vocal delivery and the ability to convey information clearly without visual aids.
