  • Social and Cultural Functions of the Local Press in Preston, Lancashire, 1855-1900
    Reading the local paper: Social and cultural functions of the local press in Preston, Lancashire, 1855-1900 by Andrew Hobbs A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Central Lancashire November 2010 ABSTRACT This thesis demonstrates that the most popular periodical genre of the second half of the nineteenth century was the provincial newspaper. Using evidence from news rooms, libraries, the trade press and oral history, it argues that the majority of readers (particularly working-class readers) preferred the local press, because of its faster delivery of news, and because of its local and localised content. Building on the work of Law and Potter, the thesis treats the provincial press as a national network and a national system, a structure which enabled it to offer a more effective news distribution service than metropolitan papers. Taking the town of Preston, Lancashire, as a case study, this thesis provides some background to the most popular local publications of the period, and uses the diaries of Preston journalist Anthony Hewitson as a case study of the career of a local reporter, editor and proprietor. Three examples of how the local press consciously promoted local identity are discussed: Hewitson’s remoulding of the Preston Chronicle, the same paper’s changing treatment of Lancashire dialect, and coverage of professional football. These case studies demonstrate some of the local press content that could not practically be provided by metropolitan publications. The ‘reading world’ of this provincial town is reconstructed, to reveal the historical circumstances in which newspapers and the local paper in particular were read.

  • Henry Faure Walker CEO, Newsquest Media Group Media Masters – June 7, 2018 Listen to the Podcast Online, Visit
    Henry Faure Walker CEO, Newsquest Media Group Media Masters – June 7, 2018 Listen to the podcast online, visit www.mediamasters.fm Welcome to Media Masters, a series of one to one interviews with people at the top of the media game. Today, I’m joined by Henry Faure Walker, chief executive of Newsquest, one of the UK’s largest publishers of regional news. After serving as managing director at JP Ventures and general manager at The Scotsman, Henry was named digital director of Johnston Press, where he led the group’s successful digital transformation. In 2014, Newsquest appointed him chief executive, citing his appreciation of the group’s print heritage, and his ability to implement strong digital strategies. The company publishes more than 200 titles, and reaches an audience of 28 million every month. Henry, thank you for joining me. Thanks very much. It’s a pleasure to be here. So Henry, let me go on with the most difficult question first, I think, which is that regional news publishers must have it the toughest out of all of the print press that is under pressure at the moment. How can you balance the viability of it as a business, while also being a strong voice for local communities? Look, I think clearly print newspapers are tough, and the woes of the local newspaper industry have been well publicised, and a large part of that has been driven by the dramatic declines in classified advertising, which Rupert Murdoch used to call the ‘rivers of gold’, that to a large degree supported the financial model of local newspapers.

Mencap has adopted a new corporate style, a new logo, and a new "positive" image to reflect changing attitudes about disabilities. Using for analysis the criteria defined within the organization's press releases, the study focused on two key issues: (1) how closely the press reported Mencap's changing imagery and demonstrated an awareness of the underlying objectives; and (2) how the press included additional aspects of portraying representations of "learning
