The Freelance

WE ARE sending this issue of the newsletter of London Freelance Branch to all Journalist readers, not least because many of you who are not Branch members will want to see our very brief guide to copyright and the personal liability insurance offer negotiated for members by the NUJ's Freelance Office.

If you want to receive monthly email updates from the Freelance, visit www.londonfreelance.org/linkup - and do visit www.londonfreelance.org/fl to read longer and updated versions of most of these stories.

Extra stories here online include:

• Our analysis of the Taylor Review on precarious workers
• Time to re-think the re-write in the age of online rip-offs
• The Freelance at Bylinefest a 'riot of independent journalism'
• Our President's Platform Tim Dawson's column, including the fight for a free media dividing the OSCE and Byline festival - hacks in the woods
