So, if you write for a small local paper, you're not a journalist?
If there's a qualitative difference, it may be that anyone can access something published by a journalist, if they pay for it. Whereas you can't buy the video feed from an Army UAV.
But if a spy sells secrets to anyone who'll pay for them, is he/she a journalist? :)
Actually the Army UAV's publish their video steams unencrypted and make them accessible to a broad public who has a video receiver.
So they're not spy planes; they're journalist planes!
More like if it's an internal paper that only selected employees are allowed to read. A small local paper can still be read by anybody in the world.
If it is broadly known that she's willing to sell those secrets to anyone, AND if she allows the stories to become widespread i.e. everyone can buy the story, not just the highest bidder, then yes, it seems to me that she's essentially operating a (probably) very expensive bulletin.
