Interviewing "The Brynn"



Since the tabloid magazine „The Brynn“ is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, we interviewed Kathy Prize, one of their reporters, since the beginning of the magazine, about the history of “The Brynn”, their team and about the current situation of the press.

The history takes us 10 years back, in a small town in Brynnland. Amanda Perez, todays chief editor of the magazine, was one of the founders of “The Brynn”. “The original idea was to establish a good relationship with the government and work side by side as a team. In the last couple of years that changed, due to alerting changes in the work of the government”, says Kathy Prize. In these days “The Brynn” sees its duty in checking the government and their work, what they say, what they do. One of the magazine´s main concerns is, that politicians in charge should not see immigrants as a danger and they should think more about the economic situation of the country.

In the past 10 years the magazine extended itself quite a lot. 6 departments are working day by day to inform and entertain people. Prize says, that ““The Brynn” is the perfect magazine for people with just a little bit of time, since our format, an online blog, is available 24/7.”

Concerning the situation of the press in Brynnland, their rights and their freedom, basically everything is alright. “The only problem the magazine has to deal with sometimes is that politicians from different countries try to influence us indirectly via the message center, for example”, says Prize. Regarding the norms and duties of the press, “The Brynn” feels that people expect them to write about everything. “But since we don´t want to be hated by the people, we don´t write about topics our readers would not appreciate. But we are not afraid! Our main goal is to inform the people.”.
