Biography[]
After the Rapture[]
She is shown as being competent at her job, maintaining her composure during the plague of boils and doing her live reporting fairly. She interviewed people standing in line waiting to take the mark of loyalty just after the mark was introduced in Jerusalem while the Morale Monitors and Peacekeepers were taking it first. She was able to speak the rudiments of several language in order to ask interviewees whether they spoke English so that the translators would not be forced to use captioning on screen. Anika was able to interview Viv Ivins, who immediately used the Global Community's official euphemism of "loyalty enforcement facilitator" when Anika pointed out the prominent guillotine in proximity to the loyalty mark application site.
However, she is happy to repeat false information she's given about Chloe Williams when announcing her capture.
