IC:
A brief description of what brought you here. (Was it a recommendation? A wanted ad? Simple whimsy? Something else?): I moved here from Salt Lake City, Utah. For a few weeks, I couldn’t find a job, so I made a living by doing occasional works, e.g. being a driver or pilot, but it was never enough. I want a steady workplace. In SLC, I worked as a journalist for a local newspaper, so I thought I could continue under the supportive wings of SANews.
A brief description of why you feel you'd be an asset to our team (feel free to include relevant skills and/or achievements): As I mentioned before, I worked as a reporter-journalist for a small, local newspaper company. I could use the experience that I’ve obtained there. Also, while I was struggling for my life, I’ve made dealings with people that can be good sources of exciting, fresh news.

PROTEST AGAINST VIOLENCE
Los Santos was always the garden-frame of violence and agony. Did you know that over 60% of committed murders are done by members of a gang? Have you ever noticed that more and more gangs are roaming the streets of our city? Ever thought about that it was never easier to obtain a gun than nowadays?
But now, you are given the chance to change. Tomorrow, you can be like the LSPD. You can do something against street crimes. The local branch of the LDS Church with the support of many civilian associations organized a protest. According to Branch President Paul Emerson, it’s going to be the largest protest that ever took place in Los Santos.
The event will take place tomorrow morning at 8:00 AM on the stairs of the City Hall.

Re: SANews Application by John Pendergast
Despite your wording, grammar being very good, your story is similar to the one of Benji Clix.

Thanks for your trust.
(( I've read the past few applications (including Benji's), but the idea of the story came from a flyer laying on my desk ))
