Answer 4

A journalist is a person that tells the (news) story...hopefully unbiased...and complete in detail..no matter how long that may take. Not the same as a Reporter that just reports a situation or condition. A journalist may in fact get into the situation him/her self and keep a diary so to speak to relay the info at a later time in context. A reporter "sees" a fire...The journalist "just got his butt burnt" trying to get into the mess...lol   (exaggerated)
