Many news publishers do not pay for photos but there is a growing trend (still in its infancy) in which news organizations are beginning to accept and use photos submitted by individuals. Newspapers like Florida Today belong in this category.
Reuters pays for pictures that it distributes for publication. It has partnered with Yahoo for videos submitted by private individuals. http://news.yahoo.com/you-witness-news
The pictures and videos you submit can be of varying quality - unlike stock photos or contest submissions where you have to pay attention to your composition, lighting and other factors.
Visit Spymedia and you may find buyers for your photos of particular sporting events - even high school games or events!
Yes, there are plenty of places to submit your photos for sale or for exposure. These are just a few. Digital cameras are a must these days. You can get some great ones at a very reasonable cost. Many have short video-clip capabilities. There are many to choose from. Try DigitalCameras for a review of some good ones at reasonable cost. There are also some good books there. Check it out.
