PROJECT

Formerly known as Children's Express, Headliners is a UK-wide news agency producing news, features and comment by young people for everyone.

Through a unique learning through journalism programme, young people aged 8 to 19 research and write stories on issues that are important to them for publication in national and local newspapers, magazines, television and radio.

The aim of this blog, created by Maëlle Guéroult and Connor Scullion, is to let every young person from Northern Ireland express their ideas and opinions, whatever their background.

The views contained in this blog are those of the individual writer and are not necessarily endorsed by Headliners, the host school or any other partner organisation.

What's a good future?

Jade Goody died on the 22nd of March. She died from cervical cancer. It must be awful for her family and friends. We think that she shouldn’t get so much attention from the press because after all she is not really famous for anything, other than being on Big Brother. Being famous means you're talented, being on Big Brother means you want to be on television. It is good that she has helped her children to have a good future but by providing a good future for her kids she is making them famous for nothing.
