In times of uncertainty and change this is a nice message to the media and to all of us from my Merseyside colleague Irene Hall. It has been published in the Liverpool Daily Post today, in its last week as a daily print newspaper. BIG changes are afoot this year – maybe in your life, and certainly [...]
No sane newspaper would currently want to be even obliquely associated with The News of the World, given the current expose of some of its news-gathering habits.
