Theexaminer.com Require Social Security Number to contribute to website Denver Colorado

Report # 421968 written by Lori in Canton, Georgia is full of misleading information about Examiner.com. If you go to work for a company, well say McDonalds for instance, you are required by federal law (via IRS) to complete a W-9 tax form. Examiner.com who hires journalists to write for their websites, requires that all employees file a W-9. Yes, as every one is aware you have to include your social security number, but that is at every job, even if you work for McDonalds. The same with the criminal background check. You cannot do a proper criminal background check without the employees social security number. The purpose for the background check is to assure Examiner.com that you are not a cyber criminal and/or a registered sex offender. The reason for that is that the journalists that work for Examiner.com have a BIO page with contact information. They do not wish to hire individuals who will cyber stalk or harass their journalists or their fans. Yes, the contributors for Examiner are, in fact, journalists. You must apply for the position and supply writing credentials along with a demonstration of your writing abilities to be considered for employment.

Please note that within the report on your website, your contributor mentioned Google. What she is talking about is called Ad Sense. In order to participate in their program you must pay them upfront and continue to pay them every month in order to work for them. In addition you must also advertise your own material.

Examiner.com does not charge you any fees, because they are hiring you to do a job. You tell me who is getting ripped off, a journalist working for an actual company or someone who has to constantly pay Google in order to continue in a program that may never pay.
