We can sometimes over-do the decline of traditional media. It’s true that newspaper sales are flagging but the Saturday market is often overlooked.

The broadsheets often put a big hitter into the editor’s chair in charge of the Saturday edition and a de facto number two to the big boss and the Telegraph did just that today by appointing Richard Preston as Saturday editor. I’ve dealt him a fair amount in his current role as Comment Editor at the DT and I look forward to seeing how he’ll develop the paper and build its Saturday personality.
