Price, 28, an investigative reporter, said this week that her television station's catchphrase is “8 On Your Side."

“But the roles recently reversed when I found a viewer on MY side, and I couldn't be more grateful," Price said. “I will be forever grateful for the woman who went out of her way to email me, a total stranger. She had zero obligation to, but she did anyway. Talk about being on your side, huh?"
