Are you a freelance writer, blogger,
photographer, videographer; new media generation and need your press credentials? As freelance in new media reporting, you
have likely been turned away from covering special events, openings and major galas. You may have been snubbed as a blogger,
amateur, student or for not having “proper” credentials.
Cable Muse Network LLC (CMN) will help you build your credentials in just two steps.
Perks:
Despite, writer’s cramp, writer’s block and the shutter bug, new media journalists and photographers are able
to find a few perks, also known as “freebies” such as waved ticket charges, invitations to grand openings of museums,
art exhibitions, and night clubs to name a few. When you have credentials, you may have the opportunity to interview politicians,
celebrities and artists which would have otherwise unavailable to you.
What sets CMN Press Credentials apart from others
is we believe in our freelance contributors. We review and critique the work of our contributors. We require regular contributions
to CMN in order to keep the credentials in good standing. We will hold you to same high standards we hold ourselves.
Do I need
credentials to cover an event in the United States? No; we have laws that protect freedom of the press and
speech. However, we also have the Catch 22 theory; most events require verifiable press credentials from a publisher such
as Cable Muse Network LLC. Note: Event coordinators may and should ask for you for a second picture identification
before permitting access to any event.
Will my credentials help me pass police or fire lines?
Absolutely not; as a responsible journalist or photographer you must always keep your safety and that of others in mind. We
recommend you contact your local police department for any additional restrictions and requirements of members of the press.
Why are CMN
Press Credentials fees cheaper than similar programs? Cable Muse Network LLC is founded and supported by freelance
writers and new media persons such as you. We have also been caught in the “catch 22” of event coverage and want
to be your muse and get you started today.
