Winchester News Online (WINOL) is the country's leading student news service with an Alexa rated web audience at least 50 times greater than its nearest rival in term time. Produced as a television news bulletin, a radio news bulletin, a website and twitter feed and associated video and text based features. |
The goal of WINOL is to provide a stepping stone to employment in journalism and the media by providing an exact replica of the working world, allowing students to specialise in both production areas from radio and TV to web and magazine, and in subject areas from hard news and politics to fashion, sport and music reviews. |
WINOL has been prasied again and again by the series of working editors who kindly come in and act as guest editors, coaching students exactly as though they were already in the workplace. WINOL's all-night live coverage of the General Election was destribed as "amazing" and breathtaking by the BBC's election editor. |
