Morphology
reportorially = reportorial (semi-transparent) = report + orial + ly
The adjective 'reportorial' is formed from 'report' + the less familiar suffix '-orial', and adding '-ly' yields a regular adverbial form; '-orial' may not be immediately recognized by learners.
Etymology
Reportorially starts with report, a word that once meant 'to bring back' news, and adds -orial and -ly to mean 'in the way of a reporter'. So to act reportorially is to give facts clearly and stay neutral, just like a reporter.
