Following the news that half of Britons can’t name a Black British historical figure, I’m looking to speak to a Black British historical figure (pre-1800s ideally) for a piece in the Chronicle. No time-wasters please! #journorequest

[David Archer Journo @JournoArcher]

Looking to speak to the parents of a child who identifies as a cat for a piece I’m writing for the Leatherbridge Mail.

Equally happy to speak to someone willing to make it up, I’m not fussy #journorequest

BREAKING:

Sorry to announce that HRH Prince Phillip Duke of Edinburgh has died.

Out of respect I will hold off on publishing my investigative piece on his and her majesty’s sex life until a more appropriate time.

[David Archer Journo @JournoArcher]

Applying for this for the ninth year running and need advice!!

Am I too over-qualified? Is this why I’ve been overlooked?

I was ‘highly commended’ for Leatherbridge New Journalist of the Year at the Bridgey Awards in 2011 - will this count against me?? #JournoRequest

Looking to speak to anyone who works on a #fishing vessel or other ship about managing an isolated #crew during a pandemic.

Preferably a pirate, as I’ve been saving the headline ‘Aaargh Number’ for some time now.

Speaking of having made it, can anyone advise on the best platform to monetise my journalism? Looking at @Patreon or @OnlyFans

[David Archer Journo @JournoArcher]

When I started out in radio, roughly 15% of people showed me professional respect, saw me as a colleague (not just “the intern” or AP) and paid me for my time. I only realise this now that I've made it..

This one goes out to all the forgotten interns! You count too ❤️ 👍

[David Archer Journo @JournoArcher]

I’ve already missed three bulletins trying to get this story nailed. Can anyone help with this??

My next bulletin is in two minutes and my editor is getting frustrated.

Come on #Didsbury folk! I’ll even take someone who won the carriage clock! #journorequest

[David Archer Journo @JournoArcher]

Surely one of my followers in the #Didsbury area can help.

Did you win #Bullseye in the 80’s? Are you now finally getting use out of that speedboat?

Need a light piece of news to finish my bulletin, surely some will know someone #journorequest

Just had my job applications to the BBC, ITV and Sky rejected - and frankly I’m pretty sick and tired of being censored by the MSM.

I guess I’m just another casualty of “Cancel Culture.” So much for freedom of speech!

@DefundBBC @SpeechUnion pls RT

Looking to interview a world-leading epidemiologist for an important article I’m writing titled “which Covid-19 vaccine are you?”

No time wasters or virologists. #journorequest

[David Archer Journo @JournoArcher]

Best of luck to Charlie with this.

I tried for years on that scoop, but sadly proved too difficult a #journorequest

[Charlie Burley @CharlieBurley_]

Do you know a great bingo caller in #Nottingham or #Skegness!? The more eccentric the better! Drop me a DM with your suggestions as soon as poss 🙌 #journorequest

[David Archer Journo @JournoArcher]

Hi @MagnusCarlsen Can you put me in touch with Garry Kasparov please? #journorequest

[David Archer Journo @JournoArcher]

Writing an article about how Covid is affecting the atmosphere at sporting events.

Looking to interview a Chess Grandmaster about what it’s like to now have to play in empty stadiums. Can any of my followers help me? #journorequest

[David Archer Journo @JournoArcher]

Please stop suggesting Elmārs Zemgalis. He was an honourary grandmaster, not a proper grandmaster. And he’s dead.

Really struggling with a similar story too!

Looking to interview a man, woman or child. If anyone knows anyone that might be suitable, please DM me #journorequest

[Sandra Mitchell @glabsandra]

#journorequest looking to speak to a teacher, a parent and a pupil about their first week back at school - DMs are open!

[David Archer Journo @JournoArcher]

My internet is finally back up! Quite a lonely few months waiting in for the engineer. Really excited to get in touch with my contact in Wuhan, he reckoned there was a big story breaking. Hopefully I can jump on it before anyone else.

[David Archer Journo @JournoArcher]

I want to apologise for those listening to my debut shift as a news reader on Leatherbridge FM.

I mistakenly said BA Pilots have ‘wanked off in protest’.

I of course meant ‘walked off.’

[David Archer Journo @JournoArcher]

Writing a think-piece on why you can’t buy cans of Stella at the airport but you can buy five litre bottles of spirits.

Working on the theory that it’s a conspiracy fronted by Big Gin and am looking to interview anyone who knows more about this ‘ginspiracy’ #JournoRequest
