Reporter

The Reporter is an unnamed character featured in the Zombies modes of Call of Duty: Black Ops III and Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. He is heard in certain radio messages in Shadows of Evil, Der Eisendrache and Revelations in Black Ops III, and in Tag der Toten in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4.
==History==
===Call of Duty: Black Ops III===
The Reporter was tasked by a man known as Tony "Hale" Rapt, which was later found out to be an alias by the Shadowman, to uncover many secrets about Morg City and gather several different artifacts from around the world such as the Summoning Key. After he was done in Morg City, Rapt informed the Reporter he would have to head to San Francisco and interview "the subjects".
After collecting the Summoning Key, he would receive a letter from Monty which described the catastrophic events that would unfold because of what he has done. Knowing what he has done, he begins to panic, but was soon confronted by the Primis Edward Richtofen. Waving around Monty's letter, the Reporter attempted to attack Richtofen. Richtofen was then forced to stab the Reporter to death with a knife to the chest. The Reporter's body can be found sitting behind one of the windows in Shadows of Evil at Canal Station.
The Shadowman later mentions the Reporter to Primis during the events of Revelations and how Richtofen was the one who killed him.
===Call of Duty: Black Ops 4===
The Reporter, possibly another version of him, is heard in the audio reels of Tag der Toten. He is brought into Ultimis Richtofen's laboratory at Group 935's Siberia facility on July 18th, 1945 by Maxis, presumably as one of the test subjects Richtofen ordered.
When questioned on his motives, he mentions that the Shadowman sent him the coordinates to the facility to "find some goods", giving him a vague description of a "strange metal object". Richtofen explains that the Seal is not for sale, or for stealing, having just brought it with him, and asked him how he knew it'd be there. The Reporter simply tells him that he's sent where the Shadowman tells him to go, and tells him to go ahead with killing him. He said that Mr. Rapt told him it would be okay if he died, that he'd reach out to the Reporter across the multiverse to seek him out.
He believes that there's another version out there having much better luck than him (presumably his Dimension 63 counterpart, who was ironically killed by Primis Richtofen). When asked what to do with him, Richtofen tells Maxis to "take the sad, strange little man away", intending to dispose of him.
