[From a TOEIC test]
a. Good morning, uh, Kevin Farley here with the Daily Newspaper. I've got a few questions about the upcoming job fair.
b. Hello, this is Tim Waters from the Highland post. I'm doing a piece on Allen Sherwick's new book, so I'd like some information about the events on his tour.

Why is "with" used in the first sentence while "from" in the second? I think that "from" means "come from", but what does "with" here mean? Does it mean something like Kevin Farley stands for the Daily Newspaper so he is with the newspaper?
