Welcome

Welcome to The Editors, a new blog written by editors from across the range of أغر؟´«أ½ News outlets - TV, radio and interactive - about their issues, dilemmas, and highs (and lows) they face in doing their jobs. From to Newsnight, via everything from Radio One Newsbeat to the , we hope all areas of أغر؟´«أ½ News will be represented here.
We are committed to being impartial, fair and accurate - these are the qualities which أغر؟´«أ½ News is rightly expected to uphold. But we also want to be open and accountable, and while this is nothing new (my colleagues and I are quite used to appearing on on News 24 and Feedback on Radio 4), we are hoping this blog will be a fresh way of having a direct conversation with you, our audiences.
But of course the real strength of blogs is that they can be a conversation - which is where you come in. Tell us your views, either by adding your comments at the bottom of individual entries, or by e-mailing us directly. We want to know what you think.

Surely the thoughts of the editors - tempered as they will be by the أغر؟´«أ½'s notorious clampdown on allowing staff free comment - will only be of interest to those within the media. I assume it will just concentrate on the process of production and therefore be a case of getting the excuses in first in contentious issues.

Some people fear the blog will only give ammunition to أغر؟´«أ½ critics, and that bloggers and certain elements of the press will seize on inconsistencies etc. Does Helen share any of those worries?
