Continuing our Pride of conversation this month, Patrick Strudwick, one of the UK’s most respected LGBTQIA+ journalists, reflects on how queer issues are covered in both community outlets and national newsrooms – ultimately asking who we can truly trust to represent queer stories with accuracy and care.
He also delves into the importance of celebrating Bisexuality Day, why sex education should be compulsory, and how trust, representation, and authenticity in reporting can shape the future of queer storytelling.
