Hey all,
I'm wondering if any of you out there are or have been Associated Content members? I've been perusing some of their articles and I'm wondering where do people get the ideas and sources for their stories? It just seems like some of these writers are either getting a lot of information from the internet or if they actually have connections to sources? I'm a journalism student and I'm interested in using this site, but I don't know if I'd be able to find all the appropriate sources!

I belong to AC but I don't make that much money there. When I don't do anything I make about 2 dollars a month on residuals. If I post new articles then I can see a jump to about 15 dollars. It all depends on what you put into it.

I had joined Associated Content, but have not been active there for quite some time now. Writing has been my hobby since my college years, and is still is. I do write articles and short stories when I have the time. Well, one can research on a number of programs online for ideas and references.

I was an active Associated Content (AC) member. But I am not writing much now, since it is kinda difficult to get money if you are living outside US. I think the source for the article can be from anywhere, and I always do some internet for my articles there. Of course, you can also read from books or maybe interview reliable sources too. I mean, just explore yourself and create a high quality article!

Hi,
I write for Associated Content. Whether or not you are required to cite your sources depends largely on the type of article that you are writing. My ideas for articles come from my personal experiences, but certainly have included restaurant and concert reviews as well.
I hope this helps.
