About Us

This morning at 9am the Centre for Journalism Newswire goes live to the world for the second time. The project is being undertaken as part of the Centre’s Online news day for third-year undergraduates. We will be covering – for one day only – a mix of national, international stories and local stories using a variety of multimedia techniques.

All content is open for public discussion and we urge anyone to comment and get involved.

You can become a fan on Facebook or keep up-to-date with us throughout the day on Twitter. We’re looking forward to hearing from anyone and everyone as the day progresses.

Rob Hayes and Nick Poskitt are joint editors. Nick Poskitt is the site developer.

The reporters are: Alex Fisk, Jaak Pardi, James Woodcock, John Saunders, Kathryn Cain, Lucy Ross-Millar, Mylo Wilkin, Rebecca Hughes, Rebekah Floyd, Alan McGuinness, Stuart Wilson, Zehra Mullick.
