Listen "Roughcast magazine puts freelancers first"
Episode Synopsis
Erin Rimmer and Simon Doherty are two of the founders of Roughcast, a brilliantly abrasive, punk-inspired magazine that’s here to shake up what it calls the “dull pastiche” of British media. It’s a passion project run by a group of friends, but it also has some big ideas about the way media works, particularly relating to freelancers, and the urgent need to find a way of publishing that doesn't depend on the routine exploitation of junior writers, photographers and artists.
