HoldtheFrontPage currently publishes three fortnightly blogs – Dyson at Large, Training Matters and the Law Column.
Former regional daily editor Steve Dyson’s fortnightly Dyson at Large blog reviewing regional and local newspapers is exclusive to HoldtheFrontPage and has established itself as a must-read throughout the local press industry. Don’t miss his updates which are published on the site every other Wednesday morning.
The Law Column is written by media law specialists Foot Anstey and is designed to encourage debate on all aspects of the law as it affects working journalists, while our training blog ‘Training Matters’ is written by staff of the National Council for the Training of Journalists and other guest contributors and is designed to encourage debate on all aspects of journalism training. The Law Column and Training Matters appear on alternate Tuesdays.
