Interview
How is social media changing news?
It's making news much less thoughtful, more 'instant', and I think both trends are dangerous.
Who's your favorite fictional journalist?
Tintin
What does it mean to be a journalist?
For me the word should come attached to 'investigative'. But in my experience, journalists are passive transmitters of other people's views
How do you prefer to be pitched on stories?
Email
What story are you most proud of writing or working on?
The Times Higher lead story on Global Warming and the 'doubts' being suppressed prior to Copenhagen. I was put under pressure to change it
When's the best time to pitch you?
Any time, but I may be slow to respond!
