the I visa _is_ a restriction on journalism. not on working. the visa waiver restriction on working refers to earning money in the US, which would apply for a freelancer going to do a story in the US for, say, the new york times, but not one getting paid by the guardian. it's no problem to use the visa waiver form and get into the US for e.g. business meetings or conference speeches for which you are being paid by non-US organisations. on the other hand, the restriction on journalism has nothing to do with whether or not you're being paid, by anyone US or not. -rishab
