Suppose you get paid to do an interview. Is this Other Income or self- employment income?
I think if it's an interview that's part of your Schedule C business (like if you're a writer and are paid to do an interview), then it is Schedule C income, subject to federal, state, local, FICA tax.
If it's a one-off interview (like an interview by a tabloid), then it is Other Income, subject to all of the above taxes except FICA.
