Gale Weathers

Gale Weathers is a character to feature in all four Scream Movies. When we first meet her she is a bitchy news reporter only thinking of herself but as the first movie progresses we get to see a softer side to her as the horror unfolds around her. The first notable thing to happen to her is when Sydney's character punches her in the face over the sordid book she has written about her mother's death much to the delight of the soon to be killed Tatum Sydney's best friend and sister to the local Deputy Sherrif. As this movie progresses Gale's character is terrorised almost as much as Sydney and her much bullied camera man is killed by the killer. She also suffers a serious head injury near the conclusion of the first film after crashing her news van into a tree. It is Gale who fires the shot at the end of the first film to try and save Sydney but gets beaten for her trouble but does survive and is perhaps a better person for all she has gone through.
