I would prefer not to see April turn out that way. I frankly always saw her as being a lot better than that.
^^^All of this.

Although...
I briefly worked for the news division of an infamous TV station when I was first starting out, and from what I saw, it's a personality type that dominates the news room too.
Off-air reporters, fact checkers, writers, producers, etc... many of them have bully tendencies. They all love a good "gottcha" story.
Not exactly the same, as they're often going after bullies, but they use a similar approach.

I loathe both in the end, but I can see the parallel if we're doing the FW thing.
