This episode of Streets of Your Town - The Journo Project features Nas Campanella, who is thought to be the only blind newsreader in the world. Nas is a journalist and radio newsreader on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's national network, Triple J, and a proud journo who has wanted to do this job since her teens. She secured a highly sought after ABC cadetship in 2011, spending her first year newsgathering in Sydney before moving to Bega where she began newsreading. Nas lost her sight when she was six months old and uses an audio speech program to help her read the radio news bulletin.
In 2013, Nas joined Triple J, where she produces, writes, and reads the news several times a day. She also files television reports for the ABC.
