    Passion or Profit? – With Peter Houston

    We all want to work on projects we're passionate about, but sometimes compromises need to be made. This is particularly true in the current media environment. Is there a way to turn that passion into profits and therefore a sustainable media business? Peter Houston from Media Voices and Magazine Diaries/Grub Street Journal comes back on the show to discuss it all. * Starting a Print Magazine… in 2023?! * Grub Street Journal * Magazine Diaries * Media Voices * Pod in a Pub: Publishing’s pivotal moments this year, and predictions for 2025 * Peter Houston on Twitter * Peter Houston on Bluesky * Charlotte Henry on Twitter * Charlotte Henry on Threads * Charlotte Henry on Instagram * Charlotte Henry TikTok * The Addition on YouTube

    Tortoise Purchase of The Observer – With ex-Guardian Journalist James Ball

    James Ball, The New European's political editor and a former Guardian staffer, joins the show to discuss the potential sale of the Observer to Tortoise. The deal has caused widespread upset in the Guardian News and Media newsrooms, with staff at both the Guardian and Observer voting to strike and show they have no confidence in owner The Scott Trust. Editor Kath Viner sits on the board of the Scott Trust, meaning her newsroom has now effectively shown it has no confidence in her. It is a messy situation and few are better placed to explain the various nuances than James. * Scott Trust says ‘talks continue to progress’ over Observer sale to Tortoise – Press Gazette * Guardian and Observer journalists to strike over sale of the Observer – The Guardian * James Ball on Twitter * James Ball on Bluesky * James Ball at The New European * Charlotte Henry on Bluesky * Charlotte Henry on Threads * Charlotte Henry on Instagram * Charlotte Henry TikTok * The Addition on YouTube
