 * Common notes (e.g. I own a gun): This makes the Journalist very similar to an Investigator - whenever they investigate interview someone, they gain a clue which applies to a few different roles.
 * Common notes (e.g. I am insane): This makes the Journalist better than a Sheriff - whenever they interrogate interview someone, they can determine if the target is evil.
 * Rare notes (e.g. I bite people): This is basically what the Consigliere does!

The Journalist is basically a mix of these three Investigatives. People will reject your role idea because of this reason. Be creative!

(I commend you for one thing - you've put a lot of effort into the results! =) )
