“9 year old girls should be playing with dolls, not trying to be reporters,”

and whatever you do, never read the comments

Guys. Guys. I’m so so so sorry, but i can’t be the only one thinking this is largely driven by dad, right? I’ve no doubt of Hilde’s awesomeness, pluck, or desire to be a reporter! I’m just saying the best science fair projects are usually made by parents...

“Izzy, shut this off. I’m done.”

Holy heck she’s actually a crime reporter. Like that isn’t a joke title she’s really doing responsible proper journalism any adult journalist would have to recognise as journalism!

I love her! Fuck yes to Hilde and also, good on her parents for helping her and encouraging her to run her news website and pursue her journalism interest at such a young age. I wish my parents had been like that.

She can report on the lawsuit about all the jobs being “internally outsourced” to immigrants at Disney World.

I don’t think I had the guts to say stuff like that when I was 29, let alone 9. I need to take her out for mozzarella sticks and ask her to be my life coach.

“...my competition...”

Harriet the Spy + Get a Clue

“What happened to tea parties?”

“they were reporting the wrong news...OR NO NEWS AT ALL”

““If you want me to stop covering news, then you get off your computers and do something about the news. There, is that cute enough for you?””

It sounds like this 9 year old handled the story better then other agencies might have. She reported the facts and withheld the identity of the victim until family could be notified.

Go Hilde! It would also appear that none of her critics have ever seen almost any kids movie from the 80s / 90s because this is the plot of almost all of them.

When I grow up, I hope to be a little more like Hilde.

Not JUST because you’re 9 Hilde, but because you’re a “cute nine year-old girl.” And fuck them so hard. Anna, can we get her a paying gig?

I love that she giggled because she was saying a word that her parents wouldn’t let her say normally. But, damn going after a kid for being too ‘sensationalized’ is insane. She’s protected the identities of the people involved. Unlike some new agencies who accidentally (or not) doxx reporters who’ve been assaulted at…

Can you guys offer her a summer internship? She seems awesome.

Her reaction to those idiots is absolutely priceless
