This plaque in the lobby of the Alton Telegraph reads "Secton of the Lovejoy printing press: Destroyed by mob violence and thrown in the Mississippi River November 7, 1837. Recovered in 1915 by the Sparks Milling Company. This tablet is placed in memory of Elijah Parish Lovejoy and the valorous men who with him risked their lives in defense of free speech and a free press.

Washington DC, May 15, 2014. Social justice activists rally in front of the FCC to oppose proposed net neutrality rule changes that would essentially end the free and open internet which has worked miraculously well for almost twenty years now. Shortly after noon the FCC voted in favor of considering the odious changes allowing 'pay for play' fast lanes in the internet (and the implied threat of slower speed diminished service for those who don't pony up...), subject to "public comment" which you know will be a sham exercise leading to an already determined conclusion in favor of the big telecoms. This plan was so evil even Amazon and Microsoft signed off on a letter to the FCC opposing it (Apple was missing in action...) but I'm sure it was not for altruistic reasons. Hopefully 'cable' and TV sets will soon be a thing of the past.

Henry Hughes was the proprietor, publisher and printer of the Pontypool Free Press newspaper, having acquired the 'Pontypool Free Press and Herald of the Hills' (founded 1859) in 1877. The paper was based in a purpose-built (c.1890) printworks in Osborne Road (also occupied by the Griffin Press, run by Hughes' son David; I think the printing firm took over the whole building later) but by 1955 it occupied these then-prominent premises on Clarence Square (itself now an anonymous roundabout), a transport hub shared with a café, bus terminal and ''Pontypool's finest hotel".
Though the paper still exists, it left a while ago, as the state of the sign indicates. It's now one of several '[Placename] Free Press' local papers produced collectively in Newport since c.1984.
The somewhat tatty building is now occupied by small businesses, including a taxi firm and an accountant.

Washington DC, November 6, 2014. Social justice activists affiliated with Creative Resistance, freepress, DemandProgress, Fight For The Future and other groups rallied in front of the White House this evening in support of net neutrality and against the latest plans by the FCC to sneak in* 'pay for play' fast lanes for content providers and consumers, stranding those who can't pay in slow lanes. Over four million people have spoken out against this odious proposal. Even our Disappointer In Chief Barack Obama has gone on the record in favor of continued net neutrality. The style of the action this evening was inspired by a recent rally in Budapest Hungary, where thousands gathered with shimmering digital devices held aloft in protest of proposed additional charges for data access.The powers that be in Hungary backed down.
*FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler, a former telecom lobbyist, has refused to allow open public hearings on the proposed changes. The details of the latest FCC so-called Net Neutrality plan were leaked, not released.

Bailey's Teashop, 49 Bridge Street, Ramsbottom, Bury BL0 9AD
Ben Stephenson, Controller of BBC Drama Commissioning, says: "Exile is a unique opportunity for the BBC to work with the brilliant Paul Abbott again. This intimate portrayal of a father and son's relationship played by John Simm and Jim Broadbent has been beautifully written by Danny Brocklehurst – a moving and shocking script that will be a real treat for BBC One viewers."
