Issue 07: The Media Issue (PDF Download)

We’ll be the first to admit the media has a pretty bad rep. It’s seen countless accusations of biased coverage, heaps of scandals and hearsay-as-news. But we’re the media too. In fact, there are a number of grassroots organisations attempting to wrest back control, who want to see things done differently. LONDNR was born of such ideals. We wanted to offer accessible literary wringing; thoughtful and beautiful stories. Yet LONDNR also has to fit into the broader cultural conversation. 

For this reason, we’ve chosen ‘MEDIA’ as the theme of Issue 07. Not only is it a vital topic, but it is a much misunderstood one. So we’ve decided to lift the curtain. We’ve tackled TV, podcasts, advertising, journalism, social media and more, in one, jam-packed issue. See contributions from the likes of Simon Heffer of The Telegraph, Martyn Ewoma of SLUDGE, and influencer Danny Lomas.
