Trivia

 * During a cutscene in Dead Rising 2, Rebecca will film a burning van and some dead mercenaries with her camera. After that she says "Fantastic!", possibly a reference to Frank West, who also said this upon capturing a unique picture.
 * In this same cutscene, Chuck will ask her if she has covered wars, another reference to Frank West, who once infamously claimed: "I've covered wars, you know".
 * Rebecca can be seen as somewhat of a love interest for Chuck, and the two exchange flirtatious banter during their meetings. However, it is obvious that her main incentive is to report on the "scoop of the century", as she puts it.
 * Rebecca is somewhat of the Frank West for Dead Rising 2: they both come to the infected towns for the "Scoop of a Lifetime", both are handy with cameras, and call in their teams for rescue.
