I hate that PR pros are depicted in movies almost exclusively as ditzy and privileged young women who don’t take work seriously. PR = Grueling hours. Non-stop attention to the news cycle. Competing for the attention of a shrinking pool of reporters. PR is hard.

I sometimes give advice to PRs about contacting journalists, and in my mind it's all pretty self-explanatory stuff, but my biggest one at the moment? Never message me on Instagram! It's so obviously and self-evidently not a work account, do not make me think about work on there

Hard to make journalism pay these days. However, it is clear that click bait journalism does not pay enough. Those who want it don’t want to pay for it. What is needed is a mix inc. proper journalism informing local communities and their regions. Proud to work for @yorkshirepost

Sad to see how many people say they resent the paywall to read our Russell Brand investigation. It took 4 years. It took a team of top journalists, editors, lawyers and many more. Investigations are not cheap. But they are v important - and we should all support them.

Why do PR’s send a release and ask if you want images. Then you have to reply yes. Then wait for said images. Just attach them! Images needed always.

Four days ago, Kate Claxton pitched this idea to our 2,000 journalists in Lightbulb. Yesterday she was in/on every tabloid, ITV, BBC, Channel 5, HuffPost, Tyla, BBC Radio Wiltshire, Three Counties & Northants, US and European regionals… Author of My Mum’s A Tiger, Kate @RRWbooks now has links to her book EVERYWHERE. 💡Nice one, Lightbulb: facebook.com/groups/lightbul… #journorequest

WHY BEARS? You may be wondering why we have made bears roam the streets of Leeds in support of Leeds Children's Hospital. However, there is an excellent reason 🐻 Read the pages below and visit leedsbearhunt.co.uk to find out how you can get involved.

Yes I know everyone is rightly talking about Kieran Culkin, but can we take a moment to acknowledge this absolute barnstormer of a speech, both its extraordinary writing and James Cromwell's I'll-get-one-scene-all-season-but-by-god-it-will-be-amazing? #Succession
