Trinity Wells

Trinity Wells, possibly known as Mal Loup, was an American newsreader. She reported several alien encounters for an American news network which went by the acronym "AMNN". The reporter covered::


 * The 2006 Slitheen crisis in London. (DW: Aliens of London/World War III)
 * The Sycorax ship flying over London. (DW: The Christmas Invasion)
 * Mr Saxon announcing first contact with aliens. (DW: The Sound of Drums)
 * The Sun freezing causing all lights switching off. (SJA: Revenge of the Slitheen)
 * The gas emitted from the cars during the Sontaran attack. (DW: ''The Poison Sky)
 * The Adipose attack on the United States in Donna's parallel world. (DW: Turn Left)

Naming controversy
This reporter's name is the subject of some ambiguity. Her name has only been seen in a chyron  once. In one account of the Slitheen infiltration of the British government, her name was seen as "Mal Loup", a vague French translation for "Bad Wolf".
 * This in-universe citation, however, was only seen on an official, but in-universe, BBC website, not in the episode as broadcast. Likewise, the name "Trinity Wells" comes only from the credits of Turn Left, not the episode itself.  Is "Mal Loup" the Bad Wolf entity's manipulation of her chyron?  Is "Trinity Wells" only the character's name in Donna's World?  Why was she credited as "reporter" or "newsreader" for all previous appearances, only to be given a name in Turn Left'' ' s cast list?   These are questions that have not been answered definitively by the narrative.
