Go to interviews with more than a clippings file.

Magazines: Farmer’s Weekly

"Within 20 minutes Farmers Weekly journalist Isobel David was on the forum to confirm the story and provide more information plus links to the MAFF web site. Over the weekend the journalist posted whatever information she had on the site and collected reader feedback."

Broadcast: Robert Peston

"Comments left by readers contain useful insights - and they help me understand what really matters to people. That is not to say that I give them only what they want ... Sharing information - some of it hugely important, some of it less so - with a big and interested audience delivers [ownership] and creates that committed community."

Online: BirminghamRiots2011

On Monday evening the site published an image of a rioter kicking a policeman – said to have been taken in Birmingham that night. Within an hour it had already been correctly identified as being taken in London in March. The next day, however, the same image was incorrectly captioned on the front page of the Birmingham Mail and the centre spread of The Guardian, along with many other newspapers.
