During one of the biggest news events in history, one of America’s most prominent television journalists is not in the newsroom.

Curry has always been more of a hard-news reporter than a TV personality, and she’s used her days at home trying to pinpoint the most verifiable information about the pandemic to disseminate to her 1.5 million followers.
