Display /news in local chat

[knppel]

Short description: Transmit things said in /news to the local chat area

Detailed description: At the current state, anything said within /news will be visible only to people who join an active broadcast through /joinnews.  Obviously, bystanders could hear a reporter talking regardless of whether they watch the news through that company's channels actively or not, which should be enabled (by transmitting stuff said in /news to local chat area as it happens with phone calls or radio transmissions).

Commands to add: /newslow, to allow a reporter to lower his local chat range in necessary situations

Items to add: none

How would your suggestion improve the server? While irrelevant in the studio when everyone taking part in the rp will tune in, I've seen absurd situations in public events where a reporter reported live, but the bystanders were not aware the person was talking, as they had not tuned into /joinnews.

Displaying what a reporter says in character to people nearby is absolutely mandatory given the base game design does not transmit people the news on its own (as samp used to),but demands them to tune in which not everyone will do.

If that is the case then I fully support the suggestion, the fact that you cannot hear a person talk if they are talking in the news is absurd if you're close enough it should be heard otherwise things can become akward.
