While I think a citizen journalist category would be a cool thing ... you dont have to be a journalist to be assured of your first amendment rights ... and you certainly dont have to pay any organization for them.  :-P  It might however make an easier case for the shield laws.

The frustration of not being afforded the same protections as a 'real' journalist are frustrating given the fact (as Heath points out) that there are so few bias free sources of news in the mainstream media today.
