Special edition: Our election manifesto
Listen on
Episode notes
This is the week that DC Thomson Media launched its Election Hub for The Courier and The Press & Journal, and it’s also the week in which we launched our own election manifesto which details how we pledge to help you make an informed decision this May.
In this special episode, The Courier and The P&J’s editors are in conversation, explaining what their promises are to you, what we got wrong in the past, and how we plan to get better this election year and beyond. But they don’t have it all their own way: we also asked some people on the streets of Dundee and Aberdeen what they thought about the role of the media in an election cycle, and we play these back to David and Frank – who haven’t heard them before – to get their immediate reaction.
If, after listening, this sounds like the sort of fair, independent journalism that you need more of in your life, especially in the run-up to the Holyrood elections, you can get 30 days free, unlimited access to The Courier or The Press & Journal; go to https://www.thecourier.co.uk/subscribe/ or https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/subscribe/ to find out more.
