Yes, you can. However at present, scriptwriters who are members of the Writers Guild are on strike. Scriptwriters who aren't are called scabs. Support the Writers Guild's efforts to earn their members decent royalties for their work. ----

Citizenship has nothing to do with it. However, the magazine market is VERY difficult to get into and scriptwriting even more so. You need to know what you're doing and you need connections for scriptwriting success.

Sure, if you write terrific, insightful articles and can somehow attract the attention of the magazine, citizenship has little or nothing to do with it.

Yes you can. Magazines and newspapers accept articles from people across borders. Just contact the office and ask them. If they are taking up articles i n general from the public, send them your piece and wait for it to be selected for publishing.

you can write anything you want whenever you want. If you're asking can you sell to magazines -- look them up in writers market and see if your article conforms to their guidelines. if they only accept 'native' writers, it will tell you so in the guidelines.
writers write. they don't need permission or an excuse to do so.
