 Pitch A CommentA journo-blog for the journalists' church |
Welcome to Pitch A Comment, an on-line forum hosted and edited by George Pitcher, Curate at St Bride's, Fleet Street, which we hope will offer opportunities for lively and provocative debate of some critical world issues, as well as an airing for some more personal idiosyncracies. St Bride's has long been known as "the journalists' church", so we should be at the heart of media argument. But blogs can only be as good as their contributors - so we welcome your comments and views and please keep them coming.
