Jennifer Scott’s Biography
Read Full Bio →Fueled by Alani and Nature Valley Sweet & Salty Nut Granola Bars (almonds only), I cover just about everything in our small newsroom—education, business, animal welfare, arts and entertainment—whatever needs reporting (except sports). An Alabama transplant living in East Texas, I’m currently earning my master’s in mass communications through Texas Tech Online (Go Red Raiders!). Big fan of Disney and dogs (any animal, really).

Interview
See all 21 answers →What was your first job as a journalist?
I did a story on a tanning salon that opened up in my college town (and as someone who is extremely pale, it was mildly ironic).
Have you ever used a typewriter?
Yes - my paternal grandparents had one in their study, and I loved typing away at it as a kid.
How is social media changing news?
It makes news immediate and accessible, but also blurs fact from rumor, increasing the need for accurate reporting.
