"After 10 years (!!) I have been laid off along with many of my talented colleagues. I’m very proud of the work I did here and will share some in the coming days.

Meanwhile, if you’re looking for a curious, motivated narrative reporter with a keen eye for news, keep me in mind."

What is a "Narrative Reporter"?

Is it a reporter who creates narratives or a reporter who reports narratives others create?

"Melissa Jelten: Senior reporter at @HuffPost writing about violence against women"

*She follows Stephen Colbert, Trevor Noah, Colin Kaepernick, and Black Lives Matter.

What is a “Narrative Reporter”?

A propagandist?

Oh, brother. You and I would likely consider it "fact-based fiction"; they consider it, well..."Narrative journalism, also referred to as literary journalism, is defined as creative nonfiction that contains accurate, well-researched information. "

I kinda prefer investigative reporters without a narrative.

I would love to reach out to her about taking contractual work writing a positive narrative on Trump's post presidency plans.

She obviously didn’t follow the Left’s “narrative” hence her early retirement.

A “stolen election” was job killer narrative for a reporter.

Ditto, Hunter’s computer or Biden’s sexual assaults .

She did say she’s curious and motivated. Give it a shot.

Well that just breaks my heart.

Guess I’ll go in the living room and kill myself?

Wait I voted today against a school bond levy. If we ain’t made the little turds dumb enough by now, why spend more money? They can’t count change, tell you what three branch’s of the Fed government are, and how you tell male from female & where kids come from. Screw’em.

I have been laid off along with many of my talented colleagues.

Nobody cares about the news anymore with Trump out of office.

They should've seen this coming.
