Suggestion to add onto this role:

Maybe the journalist can publish reports daily in similar form as the will, and everyone in town can read the report but the journalist's name is not revealed. This would mean they have to be unique though.

Also messages can be sent into a special inbox. Maybe through whispering number 0 that's a non player called mailbox or something, which won't be revealed to town. (It could also be a seperate UI button but I know the interface should be kept as clean as possible). Kind of like how journalists receive tips.

This way a TI or anyone with information can send it to the journalist to publish, and it'll be relayed to everyone in town. And as the journalist should be on the side with the town, this is a relatively safe way for TI to communicate to town without revealing. There are also counterplay as fake tips could be sent in.
