Ive met Natalie while working, but I can only say thats she is a nice and friendly person.

What Steve is saying is very true, and not only that, but it is ABSOLUTELY fair game to employ what is known as "social engineering" to talk your way into situations when working in the news.

Something the police and FBI know alllllll about. Those folks will say absolutely anything - true or not - to get information out of you. It is part of their job, and it has nothing to do with "ethics".

What she did was gutsy and badass. I expect we will see Natalie in the national media market before long.

She is not a bleach blond, so I dont think we have to worry about FOXNEWS hiring her away....
