Autistic reporter Michael Falk from the satirical news service The Onion. Is this how an Autistic reporter would report in real life? And have there ever been Autistic reporters reporting for any real news outlets?

If i reported id grow so shy id mumble and my existing autistic awkwardness would amplify so it’s important im at ease but no not to his level.

Im not sure there’s ever been known autistic newscasters its sounds so counterproductive for all parties involved to join up a company to do that.

I remember I told my special education teacher in elementary school that I wanted to be a news reporter but looking back now I’ll pass my eye contact is poor my social interaction skills are poor and and my facial expressions are strange
