Life and career
Murray was born and raised in Mount Pleasant, Michigan, and graduated in 2007 from the Philip Merrill College of Journalism of the University of Maryland. After school, she moved to New York City and worked for the Wall Street Journal, where she covered the 2008 financial crisis, and then covered Mitt Romney's 2012 presidential campaign, and later served as the anchor for the WSJ digital network.

President Donald Trump, complaining to CNN anchor Chris Cuomo that she never reported on his crowd sizes, called her "unemotional", "low-key" and "terrible". Cuomo defended her reporting and posted later on Twitter that Sara Murray is a "pro/ needs no consolation or defense."
