It is a mixed bag this week and this newsletter starts off with reports on the COVID situation in the UK and Scotland in particular, including the political ramifications on the different priorities of the Devolved Governments that make up the UK. Exciting news as this Newsletter was being recorded that a working Vaccine has been found with 90% efficacy. Fantastic news for the travel industry and for those who have been locked down for too long. This Newsletter also mentions the Outlander series and the possibility of fans to work alongside Sam Heughan and Catriona Balfe (Jamie and Claire). Shock, Horror! Could it be possible that Meghan Markle could become the next President of the United States of America (after Biden or Trump – Mr Trump hasn’t conceded as this goes online) and  that her Royal husband Harry becomes the First Gentleman? All this and a few other stories from the Scottish Media.

We are living in an unpredictable world, with wars in the Middle East, turmoil in Europe, and the Trump ascendancy in the United States. What should we make of all this, and is there a particularly Scottish perspective? Journalist and foreign correspondent David Pratt, a contributor to The Herald and Sunday Herald, has just returned from one of his frequent trips to war-torn Iraq. He tells podcast host Derek Bateman about the role of the war reporter, and differing approaches of the media to coverage of foreign affairs. David believes there are lessons to be learned in Scotland, both in the context of our media and future politics.

The media in Scotland, a subject always sure to stir controversy, but one that remains important as Scottish politics demands centre stage attention. The SNP's dominance of Holyrood, Brexit, Trump and all the rest of 2016's political news, means that a diverse, popular, articulate and well resourced media is in great demand; or, it should be. Instead, the Scottish press continues to struggling with resourcing as the transformation from print to digital continues to be painful. Meanwhile the broadcast sector remains under intense political scrutiny, as the BBC Royal Charter is renewed and Scotland still waits to find out what that might mean north of the Border. Host Derek Bateman invited journalist Michael Gray, of Common Space and The National, and columnist and producer Maurice Smith into the Newsnet Radio studio.

Where next for the Scottish media? And what exactly is it anyway? We invited a group of people from the industry into the studio to discuss the type of media Scotland needs, and what is being done to achieve it. We chose a recent book – Christopher Silver’s Demanding Democracy: The Case for a Scottish Media* – as the basis for an informed discussion about Scotland’s traditional, “mainstream”, media and its newer digital counterparts. Our guests Angela Haggerty, Kevin McKenna and Christopher Silver himself joined journalist and producer Maurice Smith in a conversation that travelled all the way from life in traditional and digital newsrooms to the Daily Mail, Leveson Inquiry and the Wee Ginger Dug. Our group are all media practitioners in various guises. Angela is editor of Common Space and a Sunday Herald columnist, and Kevin is a regular contributor to The Herald, Observer and The National. Combined with Christopher’s writing experience and Maurice’s career in newspapers and broadcasting, the group’s experience spans decades of journalism in Scotland – decades that have witnessed massive change in politics and the media. The main thrust of Demanding Democracy is that Scotland needs a stronger media that is more appropriate to the needs of modern society. It covers the relative decline of the newspaper industry, the growth of digital for both mainstream and “new” media, and different models including Scandinavia, where larger media are obliged to effectively cross-subsidise smaller concerns. Our group examines the current media landscape, how it may develop and what should happen next, including the BBC, new media and existing newspapers.

For the 32nd episode of the Scottish Independence Podcast (well, actually if you count the specials it is more than that, call it the 32nd interview) I spoke with Lynda Williamson, who works at Newsnet Scotland.We spoke about how Newsnet got started. What were the reasons and motivations for setting up? What do they hope to achieve with it?From there we moved on to to Lynda's reasons for supporting Independence and finally on to the broader media scene in Scotland, why things generally tend to come from one side more than the other, and who else is trying to provide a corrective.Hope you enjoy…LINKShttps://twitter.com/snowthistlehttps://twitter.com/mgreenwellhttp://newsnetscotland.com/https://twitter.com/NewsnetScotlandhttp://michaelgreenwell.wordpress.com/

Last Thursday, for episode 20 of The Scottish Independence Podcast I spoke with the Rev Stu Campbell from the Wings Over Scotland website.That website has now become so popular it is not merely an observer of but could even be considered an actor on the Scottish political stage.Strangely, given that introduction, one of the things we talked about was the pretty poor behaviour of Scottish politician when they are (metaphorically at least) on the big stage.We also talked about the site itself and what was the motivation for it, and Stu filled some of that mysterious history of his too.Whether or not Yes Scotland should be trying to be more aggressive or not came up, as did the (mis)fortunes and (mis)adventures of Scottish Labour.We came up with some reasons to be optimistic even though polls aren't showing Indy in the lead yet - they didn't involve pandas.Finally, will some of the overtly pro-union media jump ship?Hope you enjoy...
