I was just wondering, can I just rock up to emergency/police incidents or press conferences and say I'm with "_______ news" and be allowed to ask questions and stuff? Or do I need a license or have to be employed to do that shit?

The reason I ask, I own a local news website that gets thousands of views a day. But I'm obviously never the first onto breaking news n shit. What am I allowed/not allowed to do.
I'm from Australia

Just try. In australia ignorance is a valid excuse for not knowing the law.

Need a connection in America? I was thinking about buying a camera and filming chimpouts in my spare time. Could I make money doing this shit?

Hey man OP here. I'm in the process of making money with it. I have a large following on Facebook and made a website which I link to it. I'm monetising the site so I get money for each view through ads. I'll let you know how much I earn :)

That's fine but you are much better off going into the TV/Radio side of it. Don't just get a journalism degree, that would be a mistake.

Go for TV/Film production with a minor in journalism. Work as much student news as possible. Work reporting, filming, sound, editing. These are all valuable skills that can get you work.

If you don't become a reporter you can get a job as the camerman, the sound guy, a writer in the office, lots of stuff.

Good careers here, know some people in the industry. Not everyone gets to be a reporter but there are lots of other good jobs.

I'm aware that Imgur.com will stop allowing adult images since 15th of May. I'm taking actions to backup as much data as possible.
