It is interesting how we all have to get to understand the 21st C paradigm - 15 years in – with social media being able to respond instantly; and ordinary citizens purveying the news tainted by their very own prejudices; and organisations/networks not needing to be constituted thus needing to comply with hard and fast rules; and the reliability of 'the news' being questionable; and there being ways, new ways, to get information out; and politicians loosing their credibility, and authority, by the minute; and 'grammar', sometimes spelling too, not being what it used to be; and new forms of decision-making and consultation being possible; and journalists coming under increased scrutiny; and the internet having a very long memory; and.....
