Hilde Kate Lysiak is one of a kind. At just 9-years-old, Lysiak is a news reporter with her very on news paper. Thats a huge accomplishment if you ask me.
Lysiak decided to cover a story on a homicide in her town. She went around and got statements from residents and even published an exclusive on her newspapers website. She then started to receive a lot of backlash from people.
The young girls Facebook and Youtube became loaded with comments. One comment said,
“I am disgusted that this cute little girl thinks she is a real journalist. What happened to tea parties?
Another read,
“Nine-year-old girls should be playing with dolls, not trying to be reporters.”
The comments then grew even more harsh. I guess people didnt care that this is a 9-year-old we’re talking about. One comment read,
You are nine f*****g years old. What the f**k is wrong with you?,”
Luckily, Lysiak did not let this bother her. She took to the critics and said,
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?,”
Check out her full statement below.
