Police are investigating a threat against a reporter at the Hull Daily Mail, which came shortly before an open letter signed by more than 270 arts and culture leaders in the city alleged “persistent inflammatory reporting” at the paper.
Meanwhile editor Jamie Macaskill welcomed an “open and constructive” dialogue with signatories of the letter and pointed to the title’s history of campaigning journalism.
“At Hull Live and the Hull Daily Mail we have the interests of our broad readership at the heart of our coverage and we have a history of campaigning journalism,” he said.
“We understand the responsibility we have to ensure our coverage is accurate and informative and continue to welcome an open and constructive dialogue with the communities we serve.”
