My Potential Placement

Time has gone so fast it's already come to that time where I have to choose where I want to work for 4 weeks or so. If I had the choice I would definitely pick a media partner which publishes newspapers. This is because I would feel a lot more comfortable working in a newspaper environment rather than a magazine environment. Having said that, if I had no choice I would love the opportunity to spend some time at a magazine, however my first and ultimate choice would have to be newspaper.

My first choice no doubt would have to be Trinity Mirror. Trinity Mirror is a large British newspaper and magazine publisher. It is Britain's biggest newspaper group. They are responsible for local newspapers such as Liverpool Echo, Birmingham Post and South Wales Echo. Also they are the publishers behind the national newspapers such as The Daily Mirror, The People and Daily Record. I would love to work for The Daily Mirror because I believe it is a lot like me; fun, bubbly and very witty. The news coming from Trinity Mirror is that Peter Willis has been appointed Deputy Editor of The Daily Mirror. For more information on the changes at The Daily Mirror click here


My Second choice would again be newspaper based but this time it would be with The Metro. It comes from The Associated Press and is a very popular newspaper. This is because I love the style of The Metro and I have been regularly reading The Metro for a long time. Also The Metro is very well written and the stories on there are concise, to the point and not very long which is perfect for someone like me.

My third and final choice would have to be from a magazine based, so that I'm not biased throughout. If I had the choice to choose a magazine it would have to be from the BBC and BBC Magazines. I love football and if I could choose then I would love to spend some time working for the Match of the Day magazine. It would be perfect for me as it's all about football and I would enjoy it more than any other magazine.


So there you have it, I would be very happy if I spent 4 weeks working for any of these publications.
