PS
I think the discussion is about how it gets to Sky, not how it gets from the reporter's home.
Question is whether the reporter is connected directly to Sky (via a Sky LiveU/WMT etc. server) or whether the reporter is connected to LiveU/WMT server at NBC in NY/DC etc. as usual, then there would be an additional connection from NBC NY/DC etc. to Sky (which may be satellite or a compressed IP circuit etc.)
Now being shown on screen as 'Sky Correspondent'
Yes this is a NBC/WRC-4 (DC owned-and-operated) Washington reporter named Tracie Potts. She files live reports every day for the national newscast Early Today on most NBC stations (4:00 a.m. via recording in my market.) She also appears during my local station's breakfast show with live DC updates from 4:30-7 through what must be an affiliate arrangement that all NBC stations must have the option to take at certain set times. Her Twitter account shows a pic of her broadcasting live from what she describes the "NBC Potts Bureau" so she is definitely at home. Must have a busy schedule with hits on NBC, the affiliates, Sky and likely NBC News Now plus WRC.
The Sky News Thread
If this is the NBC reporter you mean, it looks like a working from home setup with a TV backdrop, Can't imagine its over satellite.
