Jon Slattery: Things you should never say to a sub-editor when on work experience
October 9th, 2009Posted by Laura Oliver in Editors' pick, Journalism
A brilliant aside from Jon Slattery referring to yesterday’s story about the Guardian printing an apology to its own sub-editors.
The story reminded Slattery of a remark made by someone on work experience on the magazine he used to work for:
“Workie to chief sub: ‘Would you like to be a journalist one day?’”
