Picture Perfect

The Jewish Chronicle will run the story tomorrow, when they go to the publishers.
The Evening Standard, a national paper, ran the story twice: once in their morning edition of the paper, and once in the final evening edition. In the morning paper, it featured on page 17 with the headline "Israel murdered 800 children, Student Union tells Freshers." In the evening, it was on page 27 and the headline read "Student Union accuses Israel of murdering 800 children."

I was further informed The Jerusalem Post was interested in running the story. I expect The Guardian will run the story some time this week, though that's a bit optimistic.

In terms of media coverage, I and the team I was part of managed to do what last years Jewish Society committee failed miserably in: succeeding. I was the sole spokesperson (and still am) for the J-Soc, speaking on their behalf. My ammendments to the letter we sent to the SU were also included in there, though it was more political spin than things of substance.

There will be a full enquiry as to why the letter got sent out, saying the things it did, in the first place.

At long last, things are settling down.
