Newsmakers wanted

William Shakespeare says..“ Er..........you're employing writers. Heaven falls over”

cllr.pat karney says..“ Can you put me down for crime,zombies and the Karney family.”

Private&Confidential says..“ This is an interesting development. Good luck.”

Anonymous says..“ Breaking news story every week??? You need a breaking news story every day!! Dated, I am afraid”

Beefy Stew says..“ EDITORIAL COMMENT: as stated in the rules and regs below, no personal comments please even though we may agree with the sentiment about the ranter above. ”

Anonymous says..“ I love the way the naysayers about this site can't stop themselves from prematurely ejaculating on anything and everything. It makes them look like tits and Mancon appear like heroes. Will this lot disappear soon? ”

Kevin says..“ This is the way to go Mancon. You're right this is the time to actually take on news features, find stories and set as you say the agenda. And to do this on the web with professional writers rather than lame bloggers is the thing to do. I look forward to the results.”

Jason Brook says..“ Brilliant idea. Now please ensure as the above commenter alludes to that the articles aren't opinion pieces, but as you say proper journalism. If it's grown up stuff then it might make the other media groups in the city sit up and stop producing programmes dear Radio Manchester and articles dear MEN that are delivered in a child-like manner as though targetting people who have little education or a disability. We need the fourth estate to be strong.”

Beefy Stew says..“ I find it very therapeutic. I can't be doing with knee jerk negative stuff. I am off for a shower. ”

costello says..“ All wonderful, and I'll be the first to pay. But please don't use that small-minded line about 'By Mancunians for Mancunians', it sounds like the precursor to ethnic cleansing - what about people from, to choose somewhere random, Glossop? Don't you want them as readers and subscribers - and doesn't want Manchester want them as visitors? More judicious use of words, please...that is your business, is it not? Leave the (affects Fred Dibnah accent) 'local jobs for local people' platitudes to the council, it's their job to be platitudinous. Otherwise, keep up the good work ... and when can I start paying my subs?”
