No. Just like a George Bush press conference, you have to be approved first to be at a Jack Warner or TTFF press conference.  And if you ask a challenging question you will be banned.

I was afraid of that too.  If man get ban from the website, imagine for a press conference.  The man doh even acknowledge FPATT, nor the experienced Lisana.  We go have a serious challenge on we hands dey.

If I didn't have a day job, ah woulda certainly take up the challenge.  I would lobby for the WN photographer position though.

Good question pardners... that I don't know.  I don't believe you need to go journalism school or get degree or nutten like that...there should be a trade group or association that represents journalists in TnT (the same fools who was ready to fight Hunt for kicking out Fido in de earlies).  My guess is that they either would be in charge of credentialing themselves...or could direct you.  You could also just call up one of the newspapers and inquire... since the newspapers would likely be in charge of getting such credentials for their staff.

If anybody really serious, my guess would be to offer one of the major newspapers your services as either a free-lance journalist that would offer occasional insight/feedback from the WN perspective...see if they're willing to bite.  But if not, the trade group (MATT??) might be able to help.

[Brownsugar]

Very very good idea

great idea!!!

I don't think it should be hard to get press credentials.... after all this site is a legitimate news medium, we are a democratic nation with civil liberties and freedom of press.

although Lasana might be the obvisous choice, I think it should be someone fresh, impartial, and collected under pressure. Someone who will represent our collected voice and not their own agendas.

there has to be someone on the forum, that can give us advice and the precursors on going about getting press credentials...

this is the suggestion of the year!

There is no real general journalism accreditation in Trinidad. It depends on what you want the press officer to do.

Media Accreditation to matches are done through applications to the TTFF or FIFA (TTFF first, but you can also go directly to FIFA). This is done on an match by match basis, gives the organisation a press pass for the match and usually access to the post game press conferences.

If you're talking about being able to attend JW press conferences, it's about getting invited and knowing where to go. I do believe the Warrior Nation is established enough to gain official accreditation to matches, applications would need to be formal from the WN. This seems the most logical thing, it should allow someone to be there at the post-game press conferences and be able to ask questions directly. If the TTFF denies accreditation, the WN can go like Lasana and go directly to FIFA to push the case for it.

What journalist school all yuh talkin bout like all yuh 4get a man name Gladiator d man was president of d street vendors association and he wukin 4 more money than me.

If Lisana eh gettin invited how we go get in through d roof like d man in d bible who friends carry him 2 b healed.

What we need 2 do is every time d man talk he crap we call d journalit dem correct it and then send a letter see if we can get d WN column or somthing but doh expect 2 get invited 2 no press conference.

Plus once we go dat way expect dat we go ever get recognition from d JW/TTFF
