IIRC she used to also do a fluff "public interest" type piece every year or so...to call her a reporter would be a laugh.

You already know me from the nightly news. I've been honoured to be named, along with Darrel Janz, as Calgary's most trusted news personality. But what you may not know is that I didn't just read the news. I've written the news on municipal politics for 21 years.

Granted, it's her spin on her credentials but I think your over-simplification of her experience is off-base.
