It's used in the campaign right?

Take a peek inside and see how they did it.

If you download the G85 editor update 0.9 the reporter and the TV studio will be available to you. Do a search for it. Alternatively use sickboy's solution, which I've read about someplace : basically, the objects are there, but not visible.

As to adding cameras etc. that's a case for a whole tutorial. Check out OFPECs tutorial section - they're mostly for OFP, but AFAIK the camera commands are pretty identical.

Good luck!

Regards,

Wolfrug

@Charlis

According to the BIKI, the name of the fieldreporter is, originally enough "FieldReporter". The classic way of doing what you suggest is to first put down a unit (name him for ease of reference), save your mission, go to your /yourprofile/missions/yourmission.sara/ folder, find the mission.sqm, open it with notepad (for instance), find him, and change the part where it says something like "SoldierWB" to "FieldReporter" <- save, open up your mission, and shadam : he should be a fieldreporter.

NOTE : in old OFP, when using this method, you could -not select the unit- (as in double-clicking on him to change his name or init field or rank or whatever) without him turning back into whatever he was originally. So mind that.

Should work, I think! Good luck.
