The Ministry of Justice has ordered the deletion of the UKβs largest court reporting archive.
This risks undermining open justice, and I believe, undermines the public accountability role of the press by making it harder to see what is going on in the courts.

This just shows a fundamental misunderstanding of how to do news. Data helps, but data doesnβt tell a reporter to spend a years-long investigation into child labor or an editor to place staff in a country on the brink of war. What exactly does Bezos think WaPoβs βjournalistic missionβ is?
Jeff Bezos' statement, his first since last week's layoffs: "The Post has an essential journalistic mission and an extraordinary opportunity. Each and every day our readers give us a roadmap to success. The data tells us what is valuable and where to focus."

Lord Leveson was interviewed yesterday on The Newsagents. He gave evidenced analysis of why the justice system has slowed since 2011. Worth a listen, what he said could apply elsewhere.
Summary: a more complex world, which rightly requires responses to, but which in turn increases the complexity.
