As I said, and your screenshot shows, in english the word is "journalist".

It is rather insulting in the english language to say things like "female journalist" or "lady doctor".

Just because you language has unnecessarily gendered nouns doesn't mean it's correct.

    I speak English, and female journalist is 100% inoffensive in this context imho.

    You sound male. Ask the women in your life if they would appreciate you referring to them as a "female ".

    Well, I certainly didn't like you stereotyping me based on how my writing "sounds". In this context, I feel like mentioning the reporters gender is relevant because of the sexist culture in some parts of the middle east.
