It is often mentioned that Tintin only works as a journalist in the Soviets. But after that, Tintin is seen doing journalistic work at least once. When is that?

Probably on pages 4-5 of Land of Black Gold, where he conducts an interview with the Managing Director of Speedol. Though I always thought he was using his journalistic credentials simply as an excuse to poke around!

In the beginning of The Land of Black Gold, when he interviews the Manager of Speedol!

[+ filming baddies & giraffes in the Congo + taking a picture of an Indian in America]

In The broken ear he does some investigating on the stolen idol, and takes notes, as if he were a reporter. though him being a reporter is less in the book, and more in the E/N episode.

Oops, maybe this wasn´t a best of questions, as we got four correct answers (black gold, broken ear, congo and america), and I was only thinking of Broken ear and Black gold. sorry!

I suggest that if it´s possible edcharlesadams, yamilah and SingingGandalf should all get points, and Edcharlesadams should make the next question.
