Natali Terese Morris (née Del Conte; born 1978) is an American online media personality and co-founder of Morris Invest, a real estate investment company. She was formerly a technology news journalist with CNET and CBS.

Morris is a former editor for CNET.com and is a former co-host of the technology news podcast Buzz Out Loud, one of CNET.com's flagship podcasts, in addition to Loaded, a daily technology news show on CNET TV. Previously, Loaded was reformatted in Spanish and shown on the Spanish language Univision television network.[citation needed].

Prior to joining CNET, she wrote, produced, and hosted a show "TeXtra" on Podshow. She has written for such publications as Wired, Variety, MarketWatch, TechCrunch, The San Francisco Examiner, PC Magazine, ELLEgirl, The Oakland Tribune, Hispanic Magazine, and The Santa Cruz Sentinel. [citation needed]

Education

Morris graduated from Mission San Jose High School in Fremont, California in 1996 and went on to receive her BA in Mass Communication with an emphasis in Journalism from California State University, East Bay[1] in 2000.

Career

Her first journalism job out of college was as a staff writer for the Features section of the Oakland Tribune. She stayed there a year before leaving for graduate school in 2001. After graduate school, Morris took a year sabbatical and taught yoga at Canyon Ranch SpaClub at The Venetian in Las Vegas, Nevada. When she returned to the Bay Area, she did a short stint in public relations for SHIFT Communications where she represented enterprise technology companies. Morris left SHIFT Communications in order to return to journalism in 2005. She began freelancing for MarketWatch,[2] Variety, The Oakland Tribune, Hispanic Magazine,[3] and others. In late 2005, she was hired as a business reporter for the San Francisco Examiner.[citation needed]

In 2006, Morris joined the news desk at PC Magazine.[4] In October 2006, she was recruited by TechCrunch and left to work there for a short stint.[citation needed]

While working for PC Magazine, Morris began making appearances on Cranky Geeks, which launched her video career quite unexpectedly. Adam Curry noticed her on an episode of Cranky Geeks and contacted her with the idea of doing her own show for the Podshow network.[citation needed] She left TechCrunch in December 2006 and joined Podshow full-time. Morris, Curry, and the production staff at Podshow developed a show called TeXtra in January 2007, and the show launched on February 13, 2007.[citation needed]

Morris left Podshow for CNET TV in 2008, and the TeXtra podcast was shut down.[citation needed] Her new show, Loaded started in February 2008 with coverage from CES 2008.[5]

In addition to her duties at CNET, Morris freelances for Wired, PC Magazine, AppScout, Aware Magazine, and ELLEgirl.[6] She makes regular appearances on The CBS Early Show, and Red Eye (prior to her CBS exclusivity agreement). In January 2009, Morris became co-host of the Buzz Out Loud podcast, taking the place of Molly Wood who left to focus on other CNET projects. [citation needed]

In 2010, Morris and three friends started the motherhood weblog, MommyBeta [7] The blog was nominated in The Bump's 2010 Mommy Blog Awards for Best Baby Journal Blog.[8]

On November 23, 2010, Morris began to host wrestling promotion Chikara new video segment, The Throwdown Lowdown. Morris left CNET on Friday, April 29, 2011.[9] On February 1, 2012, Morris announced Disney Cruise Lines would be releasing videos featuring her as the host.[10]

Personal life

On October 21, 2010 on CNET's "The 404" podcast she announced she married Fox News Channel host Clayton Morris in an October 2010 lunchtime ceremony at New York City Hall,[11] and would take the last name Morris both professionally and personally as of mid-November 2010.[12] In 2010 she gave birth to the couple's first child.[13] In 2012 she gave birth to the couple's second child. The family moved from New Jersey to Portugal in 2019. Morris and her husband had initially relocated to Pennsylvania before leaving the country all together. According to Morris, they moved to the country on temporary visas to allow their children to attend schools overseas.[14]
