Re: A row broke out today in Medialand and it wasn’t formulated for a headline

No, it's certainly not a rant - I just was trying to make the point that sometimes (perhaps often) there are genuine disagreements that need to be reported on. In this case, I thought putting the two (or more) points of views side-by-side represented the story. In fact your blog post and its comments are the best way to witness the differing points of view emerging. And my point about Davies was about how I, as a media reporter, should present the facts withouth misrepresenting them or sensationalising a story.

thanks Jenni. Not much food content here - I keep that on the other blog, but tea and coffee is definitely a big part of journalism. Will have to hunt out the tea here in the UK.
