It's possible they knew, but as far as the story goes it's just his career, so they can't really mention it. Journalists are obligated to treat that kind of thing equally--if they aren't going to bring up that this lady is a professor, they can't bring up that Lee is a musician. It's an actual ethical code in media.
Unless it were relevant to the story. Like if they actually were saying something like, "Make more noise about school," they could bring up Lee because it's ironic, etc.
