In the continuing series of end of year polls on this blog, the latest one is the Sunday print journalist of the year. This category is about news journalists hence the absence of people like John Rentoul and Andrew Rawnsley - their turn will come! Please vote in the poll on the left hand side of your screen. The results will be revealed in the week after Christmas.
Just a note on voting. The polling software only allows one vote for IP address. So this means that if you work for Sky News, for example, and all their computers operate from a single IP address only one person can vote. This has given rise to all sorts of conspiracy theories! The simple answer is to vote on your computer at home.

It is a shame you do not have a "none of the above" option.
ReplyDeleteverity - good point, but what you need to consider is that the press have been subjected to a 'Downing Street' equivalent of Rumsfeld's 'Shock and Awe'.
ReplyDeleteBy 'taking out the trash' [words of a 'Labour' insider] in a big hit, in one day, the commentators don't know where to begin. Which I guess is the point.
