Today’s Independent carries a news report about Steve Mitchell’s comments at the Centre for Journalism. You can read the article here. Note the generous references to the University of Kent, the Centre for Journalism and to John Saunders for asking the question that sparked Steve’s observations. Ian Burrell, media editor of the Independent, read John’s story on our […]
Good to see Drew’s blog entry about tweeting from the Stephen Lawrence trial. If you go to the College of Journalism site on bbc.co.uk you can read more from Phillipa Thomas and analysis from other BBC journalists. It’s transforming court reporting.
After Tuesday’s introduction and seeing some of my class mates using it, I’ve decided to take a leap of faith and begin my contribution to the site this week. I know that it includes a huge amount of stereotypes and does not represent how journalism works in the real world, but HBO’s ‘The Newsroom’ always […]

Don’t forget there is no NCTJ law teaching tomorrow. There’s a Court Reporting test paper on the website – please access it and complete ready for next Friday.
Humans seem to have the innate desire to label everything; labels give us a sense of order and regularity, they’re a minute sense of security that can help to ground us before we get caught up in the chaos of our modern lifestyles. Labelling something can be seen as an attempt to assert control over […]

Let’s rewind back to the time when I was a sweet 13-year-old – just discovering the wonder that is puberty. I had a great set of friends, a girlfriend, and a loving family. I was excelling at school, especially at English, despite being the ‘quiet’ one in class all the time (it was my legacy […]
Although the newsday is empahtically and irreversibly cancelled, the Gillingham Building and the newsroom are both open and warm if people want to drop off equipment, say goodbye to friends or read the newspapers.
Today it was announced that France lost its AAA credit rating whilst the world’s stock markets slid. Can this really be considered as a surprise though as recently a high percentage of EU countries have had their credit ratings reduced? Since France has had its AAA rating since 1975, the country is now suffering from […]

I must admit, I was a bit sceptical as to how Arsenal would perform this season before it had begun. History would suggest top clubs don’t tend to perform well after a long reigning manager is replaced. We saw this with both David Moyes and Jose Mourinho at Manchester United after replacing Sir Alex Ferguson […]
Al Jazeera has just bought Current TV Channel. The $500 million deal sets pace for Qatar-funded network’s penetration in the US, a market it has struggled to reach for some time now. Since its inception in 1996 as an Arab language channel, the Doha-based television outlet has established a strong footing around the world. The […]
I read an article in the Sun today which stated that once again David Miliband will leave the Labour 2012 Conference in Manchester before his brother and leader of the Labour Party Ed gives his main and final speech. As it turns out David hasn’t attended any one of his brother’s speeches since his acceptence […]
It’s very easy to forget sometimes that often the ‘simple’ things in life that we take for granted, someone else is wishing for. And when you put these ‘simple’ things into perspective, you soon realise how precious and invaluable they are, such as the ability to walk. IMG_7721.JPG I spoke to Senna Whiteman, who was […]

Rumours have been circling for weeks surrounding the vacant Manchester united managerial position and today it was confirmed that it will be Erik Ten Hag to take over from Ralf Rangnick at the end of the season. Ten Hag has beaten the likes of Mauricio Pochettino (PSG Manager) and Luis Enrique (Spanish National Team Manager) […]
