Re: Is she a journalist?
Absolutely!
Re: His Girl Friday
When I see that I think of it more as what Lois might have been had she been a different female reporter. Torchy is Lois. (Or, more correctly, Lois is Torchy.)
I looked up a few links and here,
The Thrilling Detective Web Site I found this quote:
Perpetually on the hunt for a scoop, she'd do whatever it took to get it -- eavesdropping, breaking and entering, going undercover, even allowing herself to be kidnapped. She was utterly fearless and focussed...
Having seen the movies I think that is spot-on, and we all know what other female reporter fits this description.
Take a look at the link I provided for a good overview of Torchy.
