Journalism

I’ve written for the Daily Mail, the Daily Telegraph, the Kent Messenger, the Huffington Post as a blogger, and a variety of student publications. I’ve just graduated from an NCTJ-accredited MA in Multimedia Journalism at the University of Kent. From November 2015 to June 2016, I was the Editor of The Badger, Sussex University’s student newspaper. Previous to that, I was the paper’s Comment Editor.

Prior to coming university, I interned with and wrote on a freelance basis for GiveMeSport.com, mainly contributing on football and motorsport. You can find my body of work here: www.givemesport.com/harry-howard 

I also have a blog dedicated to the issue of free speech. You can find it here: freetowaxlyrical.wordpress.com
