Excellent Reporting

I came across this podcast searching for local reporting on the tragic college murders, and I have stayed to listen to other Idaho news stories because I am impressed by Gemma Gaudette. She is thoughtful, insightful and knowledgeable and has a great speaking voice. The reporting is factual without sensation and has been respectful of the victims.
