I have updated my pinned tweet to link to a blog post
explaining how I see things fit together. Corbyn Edinburgh
speech on media seems to me to mark a point at which
there is more going on. Not just Labour trying to get a message
through UK media. There is a connection between Labour
and a large audience online, mostly younger than
the newspapers support.

Current guess is that Guardian / Observer is most likely going
to stick with other newspapers and knock Corbyn in a softer
sort of style. Not sure why. Like Mirror, could get an audience
if they worked with Labour a bit more, but seem stuck on a
Centrist approach that may or may not attract enthusiasm
at scale.

Couple of examples.
Twitter is a boot stamping on the face of irony
Says Matthew d’Ancona with reason for today to reject Corbyn.
Photo from Edinburgh but no mention of
what Corbyn actually said.

More grumbles about Twitter from John Harris, worried about
the shrill belligerence of the Corbyn hardcore. I notice there is
rarely any recognition that quite a lot of Twitter users may be
casual supporters of Corbyn or just sometime Labour voters.
Rarely represented in the Guardian columns.

And another thing
William Keegan on Brexit. He is impatient with Labour MPs
who represent Leave constituencies “( sometimes this would
be put in the context of wanting to honour the views of their
constituents, you understand). “ Irony alert.
To be clear I think Keegan is saying “Forget about the people
who might or might not vote Labour. Observer readers in the
City and South West London are getting annoyed.”
Meanwhile I think there is a genuine conversation inside Labour.

Somehow in several paragraphs about the Durham miners
Keegan avoids any mention of recent Corbyn speech on
industrial policy. Just as he was not reported during referendum
when off message from Cameron script.

See other posts, I am just repeating stuff.
But scope just expanded to wider context of
newspapers, not just the content.
