Greenslade returns to the frontline with hyperlocal blog


Proving that the Frontline Club is not only about debate but also action, the discussion in the bar after the debate on the future of the local press prompted Roy Greenslade to  follow through  his championing of hyperlocal journalism. He is, he has announced, about to become the next community reporter for the Kemp Town area at the Brighton Argus.

Greenslade told Journalism.co.uk, that he hopes to take up topical issues raised by the people who live in the diverse community: “And I expect to open a dialogue with the city’s councillors who represent the area. What do they do? Who are the community police officers, and how do they operate?”
