Over half term please could you write an essay on the following:- 'What threats are there to the future of the newspaper industry and what are the various groups doing to ensure the continued success of their business.' Use a mixture of your opinion and specific evidence from your research. Remember to use lots of appropriate media terminology and references to theories. Look at how the marks are allocated. Have fun!

The final deadline for your foundation portfolio is Monday 6th December 2010. Please remember that I am marking your planning and research work over October half term and if you have not uploaded your work, I will be marking whatever work is there, so don't forget this deadline.

Remember also that if you fail the portfolio then you will fail the course as it is worth 50% of the final grade!
