Journalist registration number

Posted by Doug Bardwell on June 8, 2011 at 1:53am

In connection with an upcoming press trip to South America, I was asked for my Journalist registration number.  Clearly, I have no idea what that is as I've never had one..

 

Can someone explain and better yet, tell me how to go about obtaining one?

 

Thanks,

Doug

      Could you elucidate? What indeed is your Federal ID number? Passport #?

    I wonder if they mean your membership number? I have one for the NUJ (National Union of Journalists) which proves I'm a bona fide writer and not some Jo off the street who wants a free press trip...

    Doug. Ask the aksers what they mean by that request. They are the only peeps who know these answers. Never, ever in all my world-wide travels have heard of this. Let us know your denouement.

    Doug, I'm with Maralyn. Who asked you for this?

    Hi Doug,

    I've had to send a lot of different things, but that is a new one. I sure hope someone responds.
