Journalists going to almost every country as a journalist need a “special visa.” There is nothing new or unique about that.

"Journalist visa, which some countries require of people in that occupation when traveling for their respective news organizations. Countries that insist on this include Cuba, China, Iran, Japan, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, the United States (I-visa) and Zimbabwe."

Unfortunately no citation.

I didn't know most countries have a special visa for journalists. What was your source?
