One of the most famous courtroom reporters in the past years is Linda Deutsch, a journalist nominated for the Pulitzer price. Linda covered some of the most advertised cases such as the Patty Hearst trial, OJ Simpson or Charles Manson. Linda Deutsch recognized that being in the middle of the action is what she loves in being a courtroom reporter, without a doubt. 1992 brought her a special distinction, when Associated Press has named her special correspondent, an honour given to only 18 reporters in the organization’s 150 years of history.
Linda Deutsch began her career as a courtroom reporter back in 1970, after covering subjects from the entertainment beat. The world of trials had a huge impact on Linda, which was drawn by the human dramas developing behind courtroom doors. Her open mind, objectivity and keen understanding of the human nature have pushed her on top of the journalism.
