Repeat after me... "I DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT NOT TO BE OFFENDED".

This is reality folks, and it's put up or shut up. Want to say you saw a ghost? Bigfoot? Fine... Want to hawk false cancer cures, defraud people with magic wires, delay treatment with homeopathic BS? Then you're a goddamn threat to the lives of others and we're going to stop you.
 
yup like everyone has always said put up or shut up and me i have always said RUN UP OR SHUT THE VUC UP THEN

I suppose not. I'm just curious about the thought processes that go through a guy's mind when he posts something like that. Is he hitting the keys at random? Does that actually make sense to him? Does he really TALK like that? If so, why hasn't he been institutionalized?

Call it idle curiousity.

Quite - if journalism really was your livelyhood then you'd probably just say "I'm a journalist". Only the insecure or pompous would feel the need to use the adjective.
Echoes of Zammit with his "Solicitor of the Supreme Court of the New South Wales and the High Court of Australia (ret.)".
Perhaps I'll declare a new Law of Woo ....

Its also trademark Lucianarchy chest-puffing. Of course, according to Lucianarchy, a professional journalist is one who is 'payed to write'.

If you got paid five dollars for a Reader's Digest contribution, I guess that would make you a professional.

And here I thought that it took between 1 year (fast track, diploma) and 4 years (full) at an approved institute of learning like the danish school of journalism to become a journalist. There are several people arround here whom will feel mighty stupid for going around it the "wrong" way and wasting so much time.

I'm afraid that I know lots of people who work as journalists without the benefit of a degree in journalism or a related field. Lucianarchy's definition may be closer than you like -- a journalist is someone who is paid to write (typically news articles). These people simply started writing and found someone who liked what they wrote enough to buy stories on a regular basis.
