		<description><![CDATA[Thank you to everyone who has chipped in about the death knock debate, privately by email and publicly through comments on my blog and others. I think there is scope for at least a leaflet to help families in similar situations and possibly a different way of behaving by the press. I have a meeting [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For some reason, reading Mike Cross’s piece for Daily Finance, reminiscing about the Independent after news that it had been sold for £1, made me dig out my first ever CV. It is from 1987 and includes my letter to the Independent that triggered my resolve to be a journalist. The CV was: On the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[PR people need help. They appear to have less understanding of how journalists work than ever before. They don’t appreciate deadlines, the speed journalists work at and the hours journalists now work on 24-hour internet media. I have had a couple of weeks of dire experience with PRs. These include: Slow, non-answers &#124; Embargos &#124; [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The BBC carried a story on a tax hoax phishing email this morning, timed at 01.49. I phoned the out of hours HMRC PR at 9am and he did not have the press release, said he would get it to me about 11am and, so far, still hasn’t. Why are PRs so completely useless? Update: [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Should journalists mention facts that will play up racism, even though the source seems impeccable? I did a story yesterday about insurance fraud on Daily Finance. In the course of interviewing the lawyer, she made the statement that the defendants refused to testify in court because they would have had to swear on the Qur’an. [...]]]></description>
