If there was really any competitive edge that reporters have from gambling, it would have probably already been a thing that the most successful of gamblers will be reporters based on the competitive edge that they have.

Excellent point. And that would probably happen in other fields as well.

Political analysists would be famous millonaires by betting on elections, War time reporters and strategists betting on conflicts, economics betting on fed tax rates, culture insiders betting on that sector etcmusic competitions or what ever their field is.

Some people forget that peopleprofessionals are making pretty hefty salaries already by being good at their work, and being good takes time and pays off well.
