What the British press commentators say...

Kim Fletcher, in The Guardian, considers whether it's such a good idea for young people to become journalists and concludes that for a "bright, inquisitive, mischievous show-off with a short attention-span, it is." Emily Bell devotes her Guardian column to the possibility of Ofcom's chief executive Stephen Carter running ITV. Stephen Glover, in The Independent, deals with the circulation and financial problems of The Sportsman. He also refers to "an extraordinary rumour... that I have been forbidden from writing about the Telegraph group" (see Telegraph bid to gag Glover ). "There is no truth in this amazing notion", he writes, and promises to write in future about the group and its "familiar cast of much loved characters."
