What an excellent morning for regional journalism 👏
So here's your reminder that 265 local newspapers have closed since 2005.
The first paper I worked on no longer exists.
The first newsroom I worked in is now the size of the desk I worked on.
🚨Personal news!!🚨 I’m really excited to announce that I’ve joined @AJEnglish digital desk where I’ll be covering all things Europe! As ever my DMs are open for any tips 😊
@mariaclararrf@tomphillipsin Eita. Um ditado estranho, mas vou tentar! Acho que uma boa tradução do significado é “uma situação ou evento que não impressiona, apesar das nossas expectativas.” Sabe?
🚨 We're hiring! 🚨
Al Jazeera is looking for a UK-based journalist with at least three years of experience to join our Europe newsdesk (digital) in London.

@samgelder So sorry to hear this mate. Said the same to Ramzy, but you two and the team have clearly done great work. Wishing you all the very best with whatever is next. I know any newsroom with either of you in it will be better for it.
As you'll see from her thread, the amazing news team at @HuffPostUK, which I lead, is being laid off as one of a number of changes made by HuffPost's new owner BuzzFeed. Which means I'm, er, looking for work. Hire me!
@journoramzy@HuffPostUK Very sorry to hear this mate. You and the team have clearly done some great and important work. Hope it’s not long before you are back leading another newsroom and wherever that ends up being, they’ll be fortunate.
