"Innocent" means not-knowing (in-nocere). The innocent reporter doesn't know for sure what today's news is or what its importance is. Accuracy in reporting is important, but sometimes reporters imagine facts. They rush into print or online, or quote bad sources.
The "Innocent Reporter" reports headlines in Today's News with an impartial accuracy (hesitant to commit?) so often missing in breaking stories:
A Robbery Might Have Taken Place ...
Crime Statistics Might Go Up ... or down
Someone Might Run For Office ...
Interest Rates Might Go Up, or Down, and we might see recession ahead ... or not
A Child Might Have Gone Missing
All Travellers Could Lose Any Luggage Any Time
A Dog Might Have Gone Missing
The Pandemic Might End ... or Come Back
The Climate Might Be Changing Faster, or Slower, than scientists-of-varying expertise thought
Possibly-lost Dog Might Have Been Sighted Today, says potential eye-witness
Your Followers Might Not Really Like You At All
There will be Rain, Clouds, Sun, Snow, Hail, Sleet, or Wind Tomorrow

Sorry folks ... I just don't know,
your Honest Daily News Reporter
