Mirror Next Gen: Teenagers take control ...

REACH PODCASTS
About this episode
MirrorNextGen is a ground-breaking project by the Mirror which has seen us hand over control of our print and online coverage for one day. It is a chance for a group of British teenagers to put the things they care about at the heart of the national conversation.


In this special episode of the podcast, our Head of Politics Jason Beattie is joined by four members of that teenage team of editors: Jaspreet Khatkar, Ross Forman, Courtney Bradley and Saleem Akhtar.


They explain how they put together the special edition of the Mirror, what they learned and how it has shaped their views on the media. They also discuss the challenges facing young people, votes at 16 and their ambitions for the future. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
