IC:
A brief description of what brought you here. (Was it a recommendation? A wanted ad? Simple whimsy? Something else?):Every morning i wake up, Turn on the radio and listen to the lasted news and reports.
Then it hit me, as the news was broad casted i want to be a "NEWS REPORTER" so. I have been studying to become a journalist, my friend Phil_Lombard has being helping me in my studies, and i have been interviewing some Civilians on the streets of Los Santos and been getting nothing but good Reviews. Now instead of waking up each morning and listening to the news, I want to be the One Reporting it.

A brief description of why you feel you'd be an asset to our team (feel free to include relevant skills and/or achievements):I am studying to be a journalist (IRL) i also would be a great asset with my great humor, my commitment, and my passion For news.

An example of your writing in the two formats ((Article format, no less than 50 words, and in-game /news format, no less than 7 lines. See below for examples. Update: Wackiness (being outrageous) won't get you hired, and please try not to report on the common subjects - Nurgle, UFOs, combat situations, action stories, etc. Made up interviews will NOT be accepted.)):

4 Dragon Brotherhood Hold Reporter Hostage!
SANews exclusive
Jason_Lupo

The peaceful bank of Los Santos, Where no robbery has been held before, But all that changes today. This day was like no other, Peace turned into Chaos, Friends turn into foe's, nothing was the same. It was the day the Four Dragon Brotherhood would Terrorize the city of Los Santos. It all started with some careful planning by the leader of The Four Dragon Brotherhood, The mastermind planned it all out days ahead carefully planning each step, First hit Yoshi Mart, Grab some loot and run, Then take Ian Hostage knowing that he is a very valuable Person and hold him for ransom, this was the most devious thing in all of Los Santos history.

The 4 Dragon Brotherhood Burst into the bank, Running behind the registers for cover, and throwing Ian into the back room beating him up and trying to get the city of Los Santos to pay the Cash, Then out of no where, the Cops burst in with automatic rifles and shotguns blasting the bank robbers injuring everyone one in sight, As the Bank camera's show only, But the cops have failed. The 4 Dragon Brotherhood Grew tired and threated to hurt Ian family if the cops enter again, Ian was desperate his wife and kids were worried that they might be hurt, Cops had no choice it was all or nothing... They spring into action burst in a second time bringing the mayors guards with them for back up a large gun fight broke out the sound of gun fire was heard from all over city of Los Santos. killing nearly everyone except, Sherlock Holmes and his great weapon skill manages to keep him alive, the 4 Dragon Brotherhood have been defeated. Ian returned to his family with just some small injuries. Ian say " I'm fine now but I never want to experience that again It was horrible".

But that wasn't the end of the 4 Dragon Brotherhood terrorist attack, As the Brotherhood fled to the 4 Dragon Casino, They had planted bombs all over the city everyone feared for their lives The cops Tracked them and ambushed The 4 Dragon Brotherhood, They had no choice but to give them selves up, They knew there was no hope even bombing the city it was not going to make them Money, until this day The 4 Dragon Brotherhood is still legendary for hold the best Bank heist in all of Los Santos History

I found some grammatical errors and spelling mistakes in your application but other than that you seem like you can get creative in your writing. I'd like to see you explore something other than your own gang in your news report but it looks as if you have the ability to build on it. Your news format example didn't quite come up to par but I understand that it might be unclear to some people. I think you have the basic idea. Clean up your spelling and grammar here and there and you should be good. I would give this guy a chance, we'll see what the others think.

I really like your newsroom article, and I am kind of disappointed that the in-game report didn't quite match up with the other one.
Maybe if you could add another /news article as an reply, just to make sure you have what we are looking for!

But otherwise, looking past the few grammatical errors, I think you would be a nice addition to the SANews team! Good on ya!
