But we have to take that as a given. Assuming only that the UK readership is greater than that of the Daily Telegraph (which is to say more than 5% of the population), non-editors will outnumber editors by a huge factor. Job done, as far as gaining an audience is concerned. But the way the discussion goes after that is what bothers me. I'm certainly hoping for a more coherent view from the "grassroots", in part to displace annoying comments from people who should know better implying that the "grassroots" are the problem.
