In the latest Crime Time Inc. episode, we introduce Graham Mann, a crime reporter with The Scottish Sun newspaper, discussing the challenges of modern journalism. Mann's journey from local television to newspaper journalism highlighted his diverse experiences. Both Mann and the hosts lament the changing landscape of journalism due to digitalisation. The decline of local newspapers and reduced access to firsthand reporting have impacted the traditional journalistic process. Mann's concern over the diminishing coverage of crucial events, such as court proceedings, raises questions about the future of a well-informed society. The conversation delves into the evolution of news consumption and the impact of unregulated content dissemination through social media, contrasting it with the permanence and global reach of digital content.
The similarities between the duties of the Police and crime reporters are discussed, including the famous Death Knock!
