Usage of commas
This has been Tom, reporting live from the Olympic Memorial Hall.
I'm Tom, reporting live from the Olympic Memorial Hall.
Do we need a comma after the name? I think that this is similar to "This is Tom speaking', so we do not need a comma. And I saw both sentences. Which one is natural to you?
Thank you.
