Alf Young, former Deputy Editor of the Herald, will deliver this year’s Hetherington Lecture on Tuesday 10 May at 6pm, in the Logie Lecture Theatre.
PRESSED OUT OF EXISTENCE: the era of devolution should have marked a renaissance for the newspaper industry in Scotland. Instead the internet age is threatening its very future. Can print journalism find a sustainable way to appeal to the digital generation or might this decade prove to be its last?
