Talk of the trade: Campaigning 'Country Life'
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.ASKED to name an aggressive, campaigning journal, you might not immediately think of Country Life. Yet last week the 97-year-old magazine for the well-heeled was credited with the best editorial campaign of the year at the annual awards given by the Periodical Publishers' Association.
The issue was rural crime. A year ago Country Life began a campaign for the appointment of civilian parish constables to work with the police in villages: within three months the Government had accepted the idea.
Another surprising award was for What's On TV, named consumer magazine of the year on the strength of its clear layout and low cover price.
