"A kind of magic."




The only part that really seemed unfamiliar to me was the flashback scene that establishes how he knows "Rachel." The DVD I have just watched for the first time is the Director's Cut edition so that must be something I had never seen before until watching the DVD just now.

Gritty police blog wins prestigious literary award for disturbing picture of officers' work in Brown's Britain

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Last updated at 11:14 AM on 24th April 2009


An anonymous police officer has won a prestigious prize for a gritty blog about life at the front-line of policing.

Jack Night - not his real name - won the special award for blogs at the Orwell Prize ceremony for Nightjack - an English Detective.

Over a 13-month period Jack Night exposed the day-to-day realities of dealing with criminals, life on the beat, courts and bureaucracy.

Sometimes making for difficult reading, the blog told tragic real-life tales as well as offering advice to law-abiding citizens in their day-to-day dealings with the police.

Judges described the blog as 'wonderful'.

In making the award, the judges said: 'The insight into the everyday life of the police that Jack Night's wonderful blog offered was - everybody felt - something which only a blog could deliver, and he delivered it brilliantly.

'It took you to the heart of what a policeman has to do - by the first blogpost you were hooked, and could not wait to click on to the next one.'

A fair cop: Policeman's 'perfect' blog wins Orwell prize

Sam Jones

The Guardian, Thursday 23 April 2009


The pages of a policeman's notebook, clumped as they are with impenetrable acronyms and tales of suspects proceeding in northerly directions, seldom crackle with urgent prose or lapse into howls of sardonic anger and moments of compassion.

But one serving officer, who used his daily jottings and professional experiences as raw material for a blog, has just been rewarded with the Orwell special prize for blogs.

According to the judges, the pronouncements of "Night Jack - An English Detective" provided a perfect example of the medium's power and importance.

"The insight into the everyday life of the police that Jack Night's wonderful blog offered was - everybody felt - something which only a blog could deliver, and he delivered it brilliantly. It took you to the heart of what a policeman has to do - by the first blogpost you were hooked, and could not wait to click on to the next."

Errrm Hello....Is This Thing On

Posted on April 22, 2009 by nightjack

Hello.

As you may konw, this blog was put up on bricks on 1st May 2009 for several reasons, not least of which was that I want to concentrate on writing a book. However, if you have anything on your mind, I am still reading any e-mails that come my way and I answer most of them. I am at thenightjack@hotmail.co.uk I’m also sure that I will be back at some point in the future.

This post was my immediate reaction, live blogged, to winning the Orwell Prize.

I am sitting here at home with a glass of fizz at one hand and sausage, chips and beans at the other. My representative at the Orwell Prize Ceremony has just rung me with the news that I have won. It has also just been twittered on Iain Dale’s Diary so it must be true.

I couldn’t go to the ceremony but I got a friend from way, way back to go in my stead. This is what I asked him to say

When I started the Night Jack blog back in February last year, I was standing on the shoulders of others. I heard about a Police blog called Inspector Gadget at work. I read it and I agreed with it. My comments on there started to get so long that one evening I sat down with my laptop and started a blog of my own.

As I wrote more posts I found that people were coming to my site to read and leave comments. Arguments started, some of them even came close to being reasoned debates. Then people in other blogs started linking to some of my posts and saying they were worth reading. As the readership headed over 1,000 a day, I started getting the occasional e-mail from the news media asking for an interview. I even got the obligatory Police blogging book offer. I am not now, nor have I ever been, a media cop.

Nazi propaganda


Propaganda, the coordinated attempt to influence public opinion through the use of media, was skillfully used by the Nazi Party in the years leading up to and during Adolf Hitler's leadership of Germany (1933–1945). Nazi propaganda provided a crucial instrument for acquiring and maintaining power, and for the implementation of their policies, including the pursuit of total war and the extermination of millions of people in the Holocaust.


As to the methods to be employed, he explains:

"Propaganda must not investigate the truth objectively and, in so far as it is favourable to the other side, present it according to the theoretical rules of justice; yet it must present only that aspect of the truth which is favourable to its own side.
