Reporter returns home, finds stories go deeper

By Aldo Jurado / NM News Port

Stephanie Muñiz grew up in New Mexico, went to college at NMSU, and launched a career as a local television reporter in Yakima, Washington.

Now she’s home again — a reporter for KOAT Action 7 News.

In this audio report, Muñiz tells me how being a reporter in your hometown can really change your perspective.

Her example came when she raced to cover a school shooting — at a school she knew very well.

Sephanie Muñiz speaks with Aldo Juraldo about the connection journalists feel when they have roots in the community they cover.
