Overview
Overview
When seven-year-old Hilde Lysiak found out her new town didn't have a paper, she grabbed a notepad and began to work. Hilde Kate Lysiak grew up in New York City with a passion for journalism. When her family moved to Selinsgrove, Pennsylvania, Hilde didn't complain. Instead, she started reporting. Hilde was first to the scene of a local fire, she highlighted the plight of a local homeless man, she reported on how a dog thwarted a local break-in, and she interviewed hundreds of locals in her effort to deliver "All the News Fit for Orange Street." Everything changed when Hilde received a tip that a terrible crime had happened just blocks from her house. By using the tools she had learned on the beat, the enterprising young reporter was able to confirm the facts and get the important information out to the public several hours before the other local media. Hilde was proud of her work, but not everyone in her small town felt that way. Cyberbullies targeted everything from her age and gender to the sound of her voice and her physical appearance. Hilde considered quitting her paper, but was able to see the cyberbullies for what they really were--noise. Hilde hasn't let anything stand in her way since.
