just wanted to let you know i thought your reply to mirrorblue's comment about journalists was epic today and so i think i'm gonna add you. i'm a journalist too and am planning on memorising what you said for the next time i'm in the pub with some tit who decides they're going to have a pop at "the meeja". not that i think the media is above having a pop at, obviously, but, well i hope you know what i mean anyway. (see that degree of amazing articulacy? journalist, for sure, hahaha ..)
Wow, thank you! I keep a very low profile on LJ these days, so this hasn't happened to me for years. I'm just tired of 'journalist' being a term of abuse, and sick of the way that anyone who dares to put their byline above water these days comes in for a torrent of online abuse from cowards with pseudonyms. It made me angry, that comment.
Anyway, you seem ace. Hello! I don't update nearly as much as I ought to anymore, but very nice to meet you anyway. K
