Rating scales, judged by the best rating scale: 1: No system 2: Out of 5 3: Out of 10 4: Out of 4 The four-point scale gets people off the fence. It dispenses with the midwestern politeness of giving three-out-of-five-stars and the midwestern politeness of a seven-out-of-ten. it provides more honesty because people don’t have a canned answer like they do with a five-point scale (mostly 3) or a ten-point scale (mostly 7). Here’s the scale: 1 = Shitty 2 = Don’t recommend 3 = Would recommend 4 = Hell yeah!

"Failures, repeated failures, are finger posts on the road to achievement." - C.S. Lewis Yesterday, I had an incredible opportunity with The Honor Foundation to engage in four insightful mock interviews with distinguished private sector professionals. It was an enlightening journey stepping into diverse industry landscapes, each offering unique perspectives and indispensable advice. The best part? These sessions were not just theoretical practice but meaningful connections in action. They paved the way for follow-on "cups of coffee" with some senior private sector mavens. An amazing testament to THF's immersive approach, bridging the gap between practice and real-world application. As we often do when faced with a challenge, I decided to "go full send" - leaning into the discomfort to reap the rewards that lie just beyond it. Reflecting on this experience, I am reminded that discomfort is not to be feared but seen as a catalyst for growth and learning. I'm deeply grateful to Sam Dement, Jillian Bauman, Cally Wood, Joshua Burch, and the rest of the THF staff for facilitating such a transformative experience and look forward to continuing this journey towards success. Matt Stevens, your THF team is elite - full stop. I'm incredibly grateful for THF.

"Alone we can do so little; together, we can do so much." These Helen Keller words ring true when we acknowledge that the crisis of public trust in news media is not something that can be overcome by one single person, group or organisation. It requires the coordination of multiple stakeholders, including regulatory bodies, news organisations, journalists and practitioners, civil society and the public. By recognising the collective power we all have, we can build on our existing regulatory framework to make a system of self-regulation that is robust and enduring, fostering public trust in news. Impress is focused on achieving this through our commitment to public participation and consultation on our core governing articles, the Standards Code and our Regulatory Scheme. By collaborating with others and promoting co-created standards, Impress strives to enable a media landscape that reflects as many diverse perspectives as possible.

Wow, every so ofter there is a journalist from the tradional media side that tells the truth. Legacy media is already dead, especially in the younger generations who get most if not all of thief news from new media. It’s like the yellow pages and the internet. Only great talent and great journalism will make it. To be honest most Legacy Media is quite simply not going to survive. It’s time to stop throwing good money after bad to prop them up around the world in 2024. Lastly, the #clown political class need to understand and dominate the new reality to survive in this new world. Do your job, speak the truth and investigate the world around you and most importantly share it everywhere. Newspapers, TV and trafitional radio are decining and probably won’t recover. https://lnkd.in/gzche_7v
