…Well nothing really happened over the summer, did it? But leaving this any longer would make this blogger look like one of those damn MPs.
It’s just over a month to go until the Stand up for Journalism day on 5 November. There’s now a petition and a demo organised to coincide with the Society of Editor’s conference in Manchester. Members are also urged to organise workplace surveys and write to their MPs.
So how would you like to mark Stand up for Journalism day? What issues would you like to see highlighted? Please feel free to share your ideas here.

Donnacha DeLong, a member of the NUJ’s Multimedia Commission, has written an article for Press Gazette on how changes in the nature of the media is changing the NUJ’s structure and how the union is adapting to the changes. Read the full article here.
Last month, the union held an event discussing integration issues and the challenges they pose. Unfortunately, I couldn’t make it and neither could other branch members so a write up wasn’t possible. But now I’ve found a write up on Vice President James Doherty’s blog.
