WP:BLP of a broadcast journalist, relying mainly on sources written by her rather than about her — the only source that actually contains any content about her is a university student newspaper, which is a class of sourcing that cannot contribute toward the meeting of WP:GNG, but is acceptable only for additional confirmation of facts after notability has been covered off by stronger sources. While the award might contribute toward the meeting of WP:JOURNALIST if it were sourced, the only sourcing present for that was a dead link to a PDF press release put out by the organization that gave the award — which is also a primary source that cannot contribute to passing GNG. A journalist does not get a Wikipedia article on the basis of sources in which she's the bylined author of content about other things — she gets into Wikipedia on the basis of sources in which she's the subject, but there aren't any of those here.

 * Delete — sources in article don't seem to establish notability and I can't find any that do. Most of what shows up in a Google search seems to be social media accounts and mere mentions (e.g. "X is a journalist" without saying much more). dalahäst (let's talk!) 21:34, 22 June 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete simply because my searches found nothing good aside from this and this (a few news links). SwisterTwister   talk  06:40, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
